Human Resources Specialist

Grey Parrot Systems (GPARROT) is a women-owned, BEP-certified IT services firm headquartered in Naperville, IL. We partner with mid-market enterprises to deliver AI-first, governance-driven digital transformation. Our team of seasoned CIO/CTO practitioners works side-by-side with clients across retail, logistics, manufacturing, and healthcare — and we're growing.

About the Role

This is a lead-level Figma development role for a design systems expert who has built and governed enterprise-grade Figma component libraries, led design-to-development handoffs, and used AI design tools to prototype and deliver at speed. You are not just a designer who uses Figma — you are a Figma power user who thinks in components, variables, and design tokens, and who bridges the gap between design and engineering with precision and authority. If you have 8+ years of Figma and UI/UX design experience and have led design systems at enterprise scale — we want to hear from you.
