About the role
EDS (Ethos Design System) is the unified digital platform behind GE HealthCare’s global software portfolio, providing a library of reusable UI components, design patterns, and accessibility standards that bridge User Experience and Engineering. The team is scaling from 15 adopting products to over 100 and supplies the foundational building blocks that keep clinical and operational applications consistent and accessible. This role builds encapsulated Web Components with Lit that work across React, Angular, and Vue, owning component APIs, Figma design fidelity, WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility, unit testing, and Storybook documentation.
What you will do
- Web Component Development: Develop robust, encapsulated UI components using the Lit library. You will write clean, semantic HTML and scoped CSS (SASS).
- Component API Architecture: You are responsible for writing clean, intuitive Component APIs. You define the Inputs (Props), Outputs (Events), and Slots that allow thousands of other developers to consume your code easily.
- Cross-Framework Integration: You are responsible for the "Wrapper Layer." You will test and optimize your components to ensure they integrate seamlessly into React, Angular, and Vue applications.
- Cross-Functional Team: Work daily within a cross-functional team comprising Architects, Product owners, LSD (Lead System Designers), DevOps, and QA. You ensure your components align with the broader architecture and CI/CD standards.
- Figma Proficiency: You will leverage Figma’s Dev Mode to inspect layers, extract properties, and ensure implementation matches the exact specifications of the design team.
- Accessibility Governance: You are a champion of inclusive design. You ensure every component complies with WCAG 2.1 AA standards, including keyboard navigation, screen reader support (ARIA), and color contrast.
- Agile Rigor: Participate actively in Agile ceremonies. You are responsible for managing your work items in Rally, ensuring accurate status updates and story point estimation.
- Testing Rigor: You are responsible for writing comprehensive Unit Test Cases (using tools like ViTest or Jest).
- Technical Documentation: You treat documentation as part of the code. You contribute to Storybook, writing clear usage examples and technical integration guides.
Skills used in this role
What the employer is looking for
- Communicating Trade-offs & Alignment: Clearly explains technical options, trade-offs, and risks for the features and components they own. Collaborates closely with peer engineers, UX, and product to align on approach and get to a shared decision.
- Technical Ownership: Acts as the go-to owner for the design and implementation of the components/features they build within the UI and Design System platform. Takes full accountability for their work from design through delivery and maintenance and contributes actively to broader architectural discussions.
- Applied AI for Development: Uses AI-assisted engineering for refactoring, testing, migrations, documentation, debugging, and code review as part of daily workflow. Understands model selection and context/token management and follows team-level AI development practices (validation, security, human-review controls) to consistently improve their own productivity.
- Evidence-Based Direction: Raises concerns and proposes improvements to existing approaches when justified, backing suggestions with data or concrete examples rather than opinion alone.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or related field.
- Experience: 5–8 years of experience in front-end development.
- Mandatory: Proven experience building Enterprise Software applications.
- UX Collaboration: Mandatory: 3+ years of experience working closely with UX Designers. You must demonstrate proficiency using Figma's Dev Mode.
- Mandatory: Strong proficiency in JavaScript (ES6+) and TypeScript.
- Mandatory: Deep understanding of HTML5, CSS3, and SASS architecture.
- Mandatory: Proficiency using AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Codex, GH Copilot, Claude) as part of your daily coding workflow, from writing and reviewing code to debugging and documentation.
- Mandatory: Proficiency working in Agile environments and using Rally.
- Experience writing Unit Tests (Jest, ViTest) and documentation (Storybook).
