Restructure foundational libraries as needed while maintaining naming consistency and downstream file integrity.
Use Figma library workflows to reconnect migrated files and shared assets at scale.
Troubleshoot migration issues, including broken token references, mismatched components, and publishing problems.
Validate that tokens, styles, and component relationships are working properly after migration.
Partner with design, engineering, and platform stakeholders to sequence the work and reduce disruption.
Document key decisions, changes, and known issues for handoff to the internal team.
