Principal Software Engineer, UX – Asset Management Technology Foundations

We are seeking a Principal Engineer specializing in UX Design Systems to lead the architecture, quality, and adoption of enterprise design system. This is a senior hands-on technical role with a strong UX bar. You will be responsible for translating user experience principles into scalable, reusable, and accessible design system assets—including design tokens, component libraries (e.g., PrimeNG-based), theming frameworks, and UX standards. You will work at the intersection of UX design and engineering, ensuring that the design system is both user-centered and production-ready, enabling teams to deliver consistent, high-quality experiences across a complex application ecosystem. The Architecture and Technology Foundation (ATF) team is a central team within Asset Management that provides ready-to-use solutions composed of standard technology stacks, development frameworks, reusable software components and services. As a member of the team, you will work on Integrated Experience Platform capabilities - web and desktop experience platforms, design systems, shared component libraries and core UI frameworks that power applications across Asset Management.
