Design has always been the soul of @GustoHQ and we're growing our 60+ design team significantly. Our Chief Design Officer @amythibodeau wrote this public Notion page to share what it's like being in #design here

Exciting to see this pop up at #Schema2021! We're also going to be creating component-level videos to help with onboarding. If @dmtors gets tired of this web stuff, he's definitely got a future in voice over!

[Derek Torsani (he/him) @dmtors]

It was quite a pleasant surprise to see this! Thanks @figmadesign! #Schema2021

@HonzaTmn @dmtors @JoshDesignNz @donnavitan @_hraymond I would love to if it was something useful for the community! The template starter plugin is customized around specific inputs our team uses in the template, but maybe something more generalized could be useful? Or a how-to blog post?

[Ben Lister @benclister]

@donnavitan @dmtors @JoshDesignNz @_hraymond Most were created to help with frequent manual tasks that users of our system (and DS team) often encounter. Some started as side projects, others we saw as quick wins. To maintain velocity on other priorities, we often release them as add-ons so they don't become blockers.

[Ben Lister @benclister]

@dmtors @JoshDesignNz @donnavitan @_hraymond We’ve also built a workflow for syncing a randomized spreadsheet of fake data in Figma, which is useful for populating things like lists and tables. There are also some discussions about building plugins for generating some of our more complex patterns.

[Ben Lister @benclister]

@donnavitan @amythibodeau @dmtors Awesome, I am happy to join as well!

[Ben Lister @benclister]

BTW our Design Systems team is currently hiring for a Product Designer as well as Front-End engineer and Head of Design Systems engineering! DMs are open, happy to share details. https://t.co/niYeAMPM3J

.@dmtors wrote about our process for refreshing
@GustoHQ's Design System in Figma through research, exploration, and collaboration. Derek's extensive knowledge of #figma and deep empathy for the system's users have help make this project a huge success.

Looking up my polling place in San Francisco, I see they include the slope of the hill where the building is located. I think I'll just stick to mailing it it in 😅

[Ben Lister @benclister]

This summer, @celinefucci joined @GustoHQ as our first-ever Design Systems Design intern. She wrote about ramping up on a team whose work touches every corner of Gusto's platform and what she learned re-imagining a component from the ground up: https://t.co/MmYioE6Ztb

[Ben Lister @benclister]

We're thankful to have you on the team, Celine. So glad you'll be joining Gusto full-time! 🙌

[Celine Fucci @celinefucci]

Finishing an internship with the #designsystem team at @GustoHQ this week! I'm lucky — the opportunity to do this work doesn’t often exist for young designers. I’ll be joining Gusto full-time in a new role, continuing to grow my systems thinking skills. Excited for what’s ahead🥳

[Ben Lister @benclister]

The Design Systems team at @GustoHQ is hiring! We're looking for a Product Designer to help us grow our people platform for small businesses. Our team's working on some exciting projects, details here: https://t.co/niYeAMPM3J

I loved this presentation from @dmtors on how we approached re-building our Figma Design System at Gusto. He also shared some of the ways we collect feedback and discussed some tools we've created for designers on the team. Check it out: https://t.co/RUVjHG45jr

[Tomer London @tomerlondon]

I'm hiring for our next head of Product Design at @GustoHQ. It's an amazing opportunity to use tech for good with some of the best designers, writers and researchers in the industry. ♥️
