We have a unique design culture:

  • We focus on solving root problems rather than applying superficial fixes
  • We care more about a solution “feeling” right than rigidly adhering to “consistency”
  • We ship iteratively and value real-world outcomes over “perfect” process or glossy internal artifacts

Recent projects our designers have tackled include:

  • Creating a completely new Documents feature
  • Envisioning a new way to view, compare, and explore metrics
  • Creating patterns and surfaces for LLM-based SQL generation, natural language queries, and asynchronous agentic work

Responsibilities

  • Deliver end-to-end design solutions that are truly elegant, beautiful, fun, and simple.
  • Push back on complexity creeping into the product.
  • Use a variety of mediums to communicate what could or should be done, whether it’s LLM-generated prototypes, writing, Figjam diagrams, or high fidelity concepts and solutions.
  • Pull on engineers and product thinkers to ensure understanding of technical constraints and possibilities.
  • Iterate rapidly and broadly in scrappy ways that make abstract ideas tangible and which move conversations forward.
  • Deeply internalize the needs and mindset of our users through insights provided by the broader team. UX research skills aren't needed, but welcome.

Profile

  • You think in terms of journeys, not screens.
  • Biased toward building things, not slide decks.
  • Work out-in-the-open instinctively, out of an eagerness to receive feedback, and to riff and iterate with an experienced, skilled team.
  • Thorough and attentive to detail, with a high internal bar for your craft.
  • Strong ability to communicate design decisions and rationales through speaking and writing.
  • Comfortable with asynchronous collaboration, and articulating complex ideas remotely.

Skills and experience

  • Depth of experience designing solutions for challenging product problems. Your work will rely on research and analytics, but it will shine because of solid instincts and craftsmanship.
  • Experience designing specifically for large web applications/tools
  • Technical enough to understand at a high level what's happening inside the engineering black-boxes. (If you don't understand the complexity, how can you simplify it?)

Bonus Qualifications

  • Experience with LLM-based UI and interaction prototyping
  • Experience with Web development (HTML, CSS, React)
  • Technical background or education (CS degree or similar)
  • Experience building or using developer tools
