Job Description

The Carbon Design System is IBM's open-source design system for products and experiences. Taking the IBM Design Language as our foundation, Carbon is working code, design tools and resources, and guidelines. All serving, and served by, a vibrant community of contributors.

As IBM's official design system, Carbon serves a wide range of designers and developers. We help anyone who's building digital products and experiences. Carbon improves the consistency and quality of IBM's user experiences. It makes the design and development process more efficient. It establishes a shared vocabulary between design and developer. And it provides clear guidance around design and development best practice.

Carbon's users are also its makers. We're guided by the principles of the open source movement. As a developer on Carbon's core team, you'll be playing a central role in building our ecosystem. You'll be building components and patterns that are modular and flexible. You'll be making sure accessibility and inclusiveness is central to everything we make. You'll be defining governance and technical specifications. You'll be working with teams throughout IBM to help them not only use Carbon, but contribute back to Carbon, too.

If you write disciplined front-end code, based on principles and philosophies that help you to build exceptional experiences, then we have a place for you. Everything you write will be open source. Check us out: http://www.carbondesignsystem.com/
