Responsibilities
- Own and evolve the Kendo UI Themes framework — a design-token-driven theming layer powering thousands of enterprise applications across the JS ecosystem (jQuery, React, Angular, and Vue) and .NET (Blazor, MVC, Core)
- Architect and implement SCSS-to-CSS‑custom-property migration paths, enabling runtime theme switching and AI-assisted customization without build steps
- Develop AI-enabled tooling and agentic workflows — including MCP servers, prompt-to-theme pipelines, and LLM-friendly configuration surfaces — that let customers generate and validate themes programmatically
- Implement perceptually uniform color generation using OKLCH, with built-in WCAG/APCA contrast validation
- Contribute to the creation of CLI and programmatic API that produces multi-format output (CSS custom properties, DTCG JSON, SCSS) from a single source of truth
- Collaborate with product designers and developer advocates to ensure theming APIs are intuitive, well-documented, and aligned with modern CSS capabilities
- Champion accessibility-first engineering — every generated theme must pass contrast validation before it ships
- Participate in code reviews, architectural decision records, and cross-team alignment with the broader org
Requirements
- 5+ years of professional experience as a full-stack or front-end engineer, with deep expertise in React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript
- Strong command of SCSS/Sass architecture — mixins, functions, module systems, and large-scale variable management across multi-brand theme codebases
- Hands-on experience building or contributing to design systems, component libraries, or theming frameworks at scale
- Solid understanding of CSS custom properties, cascade layers (@layer), modern color spaces (OKLCH, Display P3), and the design tokens ecosystem (DTCG specification is a plus)
- Experience with front-end architecture patterns: monorepo tooling (npm workspaces, Nx), build pipelines (tsup, Vite, Rollup), and CI/CD for library publishing
- Understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 AA/AAA, APCA) and how they apply to color contrast, typography, and component design
- Experience with Node.js backend tooling — CLI frameworks, file system operations, JSON schema validation
- Excellent communication skills in English; comfortable with asynchronous collaboration across distributed teams
