+
+Northwind Labs builds tools for warehouse operators; 1,400 sites run our software every day. You will own the design system that three product teams build on: React, TypeScript, Storybook, design tokens shared with Figma. The first quarter is an audit of the three apps against the system and a plan for the components they still lack. We care about accessibility as a shipping requirement, not a review at the end; WCAG 2.1 AA is the bar. Remote in the United States; the platform team meets in Chicago twice a year.

+# Positioning
+
+## Which story leads
+Design engineer first, always. Design systems are the proof: the numbers in the resume are system numbers (components, teams, defects, bundle size, the audit). AI work is not part of this person's story and is never claimed.
+
+## The evidence rule
+Every claim in a letter or a tailored summary traces to a line of [[Profile/Resume]]. No new numbers, no new titles, no new dates. If the posting asks for something the resume does not show, the letter says what is adjacent and true, or says nothing.
+
+## What must never be claimed
+- Management of a team (mentoring four engineers is not managing them).
+- Native mobile work.
+- Any AI or machine-learning delivery.

+
+## What you are, in three sentences
+A design engineer who has spent eight years on the seam between design and front-end engineering: design systems, component libraries, the tooling that keeps twelve product teams shipping the same interface. Strongest at turning a Figma library into a typed, tested, documented React system that other engineers want to use, and at the accessibility work nobody else volunteers for. Wants a staff or senior role on a design-systems or product-platform team at a company that ships software people use every day, remote in the US.
+
+## Target roles
+| Tier | Titles | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| A | Design Engineer, Staff Design Engineer, Design Systems Engineer | The work of the last five years, at the level it is done now. |
+| B | Senior Frontend Engineer (design systems, platform), UX Engineer | Adjacent titles for the same work at companies that name it differently. |

+- **Work mode:** remote, United States; will travel quarterly
+- **Employment:** full-time
+- **Pay floor and stretch:** $200k base; would look at $170k for the right team
+- **Company stage / size:** 50 to 2,000 people; has a product with users
+- **Industries to avoid:** defense, gambling, tobacco
+- **Earliest start:** four weeks from offer
+
+## Proof points
+- Led the Acme design system from 4 to 62 components used by 12 teams; UI defect reports down a third year over year.
+- Cut the Acme web app's largest bundle from 1.9 MB to 640 kB by moving the component library to ESM and per-component styles.

+Hello. Your posting says the design system at Orbital covers three products and is maintained by two people. At Acme I took a system from 4 components to 62, used by 12 teams, and the UI defect rate fell by a third in the year after. The part of that work I would bring first is the token pipeline: Figma and code stopped drifting once the tokens had one source. In the first month I would read the three products' component inventories side by side and write down where they disagree, because that list is the roadmap. Jordan.

Fourteen postings at companies that do not exist, one application in interview, one rejected, two passed, one listing closed, three people on the threads, two scan logs and the dashboard. Every note was written by the product's own code (`npm run sample` rebuilds it), so it is always in the shape the app expects.
