My contributions: Component authoring · Library migration · Design audits · Developer annotations The project began with an extensive audit of several existing design systems that had evolved independently over time. These libraries contained overlapping components, inconsistent styles, outdated elements, and multiple versions of similar design patterns. Working alongside the lead UI/UX designer, I reviewed the libraries to identify duplication, compare component structures and variants, and determine where elements could be consolidated, updated, or deprecated. This process also involved cross-referencing Figma components with their developed counterparts in the engineering sandbox to identify discrepancies between design and implementation. A significant part of my role involved migrating hundreds of existing elements between design systems while preserving consistency and usability. I also authored new components, refined existing component structures, and documented changes to ensure developers understood how updated elements differed from their previous versions. Findings and recommendations were regularly discussed during team standups, allowing the team to evaluate proposed changes and align on the direction of the migration. The project focused on improving the long-term maintainability of a complex, production-connected design system. Beyond the technical work in Figma, it required careful documentation, attention to existing implementation constraints, and ongoing collaboration with the broader team. The experience strengthened my approach to component architecture, design system governance, and managing changes within an established digital product ecosystem.
