About this role

AlphaSense is seeking a remote Principal Design Engineer in the United Kingdom to build advanced, AI-driven product experiences that shape high-stakes corporate decision-making. This senior individual contributor role suits an experienced technologist and systems thinker looking to merge deep design principles with modern frontend engineering in a globally distributed team.

Role Overview

In this senior position, the Principal Design Engineer operates directly at the crossroads of product strategy, engineering, and design. The role focuses on translating intricate, data-heavy challenges into polished, production-ready features for an AI-native platform. Rather than limiting work to static mockups, the professional in this role builds scalable coded prototypes, champions design systems, and guides technical implementation while mentoring peers across departments.

Key Responsibilities

Build high-fidelity, coded interaction models and prototypes that bring complex artificial intelligence workflows to life.
Own major strategic projects from initial concept stages all the way through production releases.
Guide architectural choices and lead technical design conversations across cross-functional product and engineering units.
Enhance the company design system to establish scalable interface patterns and speed up product delivery.
Partner with product managers and engineers to evaluate user needs and guarantee strong design fidelity during development cycles.
Mentor designers and engineers, elevating overall craft and fostering a collaborative team culture.

Requirements

Twelve or more years of professional background in design systems, front-end engineering, UX, product design, or related fields.
A bachelor’s degree or higher, ideally in computer science, design, human-computer interaction, information sciences, or psychology.
Practical, hands-on familiarity with contemporary front-end tools and languages, including React, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
Direct background in creating artificial intelligence and agentic workflows, utilizing modern technologies like Claude Code, Codex, MCP, and related skills.
Proven track record of shipping production features and influencing cross-team technical decisions.
Strong comprehension of user-centered design methodologies and customer workflows.
Exceptional communication abilities for interacting with both technical and non-technical partners, alongside demonstrated project leadership and mentorship.
