Guideline Creation: Write clear, concise usage guidelines, accessibility notes, and best practices for components to empower product teams across the organization
Tooling & process improvement: Assist in identifying and documenting opportunities to improve the workflow between design and engineering using Phi
User feedback & research: Gather internal feedback from product teams on the usability of the design system and propose practical solutions for system improvement.
