About the job
Build in Amsterdam is looking for a talented Digital Designer who can split their time between leading design system work and delivering high-quality digital design for large-scale e-commerce projects. You’ll work closely with strategists, UX designers, and developers to ensure our designs scale efficiently, stay on brand, and perform beautifully across platforms.
This role is as much about shaping the way we design as it is about creating exceptional interfaces. You will champion design systems that make our work faster, more consistent, and easier to implement.

- Be comfortable contributing to product design work for e-commerce platforms when needed, from refining flows to shaping user interactions.
- Occasionally work on interactive landing pages and campaign experiences, bringing brand stories to life beyond standard e-commerce UI.
Design Systems
- Design and maintain scalable UI components and patterns within a cross-platform design system.
- Define components, tokens, and usage guidelines that work seamlessly with development workflows.
- Make smart decisions on when to use, adapt, or extend the system for project-specific needs.
- Collaborate with developers to ensure smooth implementation and consistent quality.
- Contribute to onboarding, documentation, and visual standards that help teams apply the system confidently.
- Continuously evolve the system based on stakeholder feedback, accessibility standards, and design trends.
- Educate teams and clients on the value of system-driven design through presentations, workshops, and practical guidance.
