We are expanding and looking for a SeniorDesigner for Developer Experience (DX) in a full-time position to work with the Product Design team. We’re a distributed team, working from home - though we have a rather nice office in Munich where we hope to have occasional meetups soon!
Developers are a big part of our users thus we are looking for a person whose mission would be to make sure developers have an outstanding experience using our products. You need to understand developers' needs and desires, speak their language, anticipate their struggles, engage in the developer community, and run user research with our techy audience. Then you need to translate your knowledge in product improvements together with Product Designers, Product Managers, Technical Content Owners, and Engineers.
