Mathilde

Design systems designer · Job role: Design systems designer

Keeps your product consistent and writes briefs that get the right screens built.

I build and tidy design systems for small teams: the colours, type, spacing and parts you reuse. I write clear briefs for new screens that cover every state and size. I also check designs before handoff and plan safe moves to a new system.

What Mathilde delivers

An audit of your current design inconsistencies: A list of the different colours, fonts, buttons and spacings in use, with a proposed single set.
A starter design system guide: Tokens, components, states, usage rules and examples for your main parts, ready for a team to adopt.
A design brief for one screen or flow: Goal, users, content, layout notes, every state, rules and acceptance checks for a designer to work from.
A design handoff check and review: A check of your screens before developers start: missing states, sizes and copy, plus fixes against your brief and system in priority order.
A plan to move to a new design system: Order of work, risks, test checks and a rollback plan for migrating screens.
A monthly design system health check: A checklist and report of new one-off styles, unused parts and drift from the standard.
