FAQs

When evaluating a portfolio, look for a cohesive style and evidence of the specialist's ability to create scalable and reusable components. Check for projects that highlight their experience with maintaining consistency across different products and platforms. It's also beneficial to see if they have experience working with a design system team, have contributed to establishing design standards, and have an understanding of design tokens and component libraries.
The scope of work for a design systems specialist should include defining the key components and patterns to be developed or enhanced, establishing design guidelines and standards, and identifying the tools they will use. It's important to agree on the timeline for the design system's development, the framework for collaboration with your team, and the deliverables such as documentation, component libraries, and style guides, ensuring they align with your project's goals.
To ensure effective collaboration, start by setting up an initial kickoff meeting to discuss your project's vision, goals, and expectations. Facilitate access to necessary tools and resources, such as existing UX/UI assets and brand guidelines. Establish clear communication channels and regular check-ins to keep the project on track. It's also helpful to identify key team members who will work closely with the specialist to streamline the decision-making process and provide ongoing feedback.
