New York City, NY · On-site · Full-time
Compensation: $200,000–$280,000 + equity
About the Company
A Series A, profitable developer-infrastructure company building a cloud platform that lets modern engineering teams run production-grade infrastructure on any cloud provider without the usual complexity or cost — so teams can focus on building product instead of managing infrastructure. Growing fast (8x ARR since 2022) and working with high-growth, venture-backed startups.
Founded 2020 · 11–50 people · Industry: Developer infrastructure / Tech for Tech
The Role
Own the craft and feel of the platform end-to-end — information architecture, core product flows, micro-interactions, and a full rebrand rollout. This is not a handoff role: you design it, you implement it, you own it, working directly with the design lead in two-week project cycles with full autonomy.
What you’ll be doing
Own design and front-end implementation of core product flows end-to-end
Lead a rebrand rollout across the website and product
Define information architecture and design flows for the platform’s main objects
Loop into in-flight work streams, give design feedback, and progressively take on owned projects
Talk to customers directly and bring product intuition to what gets built
Work in two-week project cycles with full autonomy to propose and drive your own work
Tech stack: Figma + hands-on front-end implementation in code.
Requirements
5+ years design or micro-interaction engineering experience with a portfolio demonstrating craft and curiosity
Comfortable implementing designs in code, not just Figma — an independent force who polishes the product without needing frontend engineer bandwidth
Pre-AI technical frontend experience who actually understands the code they’re pushing
AI-native mindset, uses AI to move faster
Based in or relocating to New York City
Green Flags
Portfolio demonstrates genuine taste and craft, not just technical execution, this is the primary filter
