Senior Product Designer - Platform

We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer with a passion for building cross-product, platform features. Specifically, you’ll design tools to help our customers improve tagging of their data and resources. You will engage with customers to learn their needs and pain points, collaborate with other designers to integrate your solutions with their user workflows, and work together with product managers and engineers to lead the design of an impactful new feature.

You’ll be part of the Platform Design Team which is responsible for providing enabling experiences across the whole Datadog product through shared core functionality. We maintain high level concepts like organizations, teams, identity, and access controls that shape the user experience across the product. The experiences and interfaces we design get used by customers, internal teams, as well as our partner product design teams. 

At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.

What You’ll Do:

• Work with product managers, engineers, and data scientists to understand how our customers use Datadog and what they need to succeed
• See your design work through from start to finish: turn insights from user research into ideas, sketch and prototype to bring them to life, and ship products and features that make Datadog better
• Work closely with engineering teams to understand how your designs will be built and Q/A them before we ship.
• Communicate both your design work and the support for your design decisions across the company
• Be the expert in your product area, mentoring designers on the team to do their best work

Who You Are:

• You have 5+ years of experience in digital product design
• Your portfolio includes a proven track record of shipping intuitive web experiences. 
• You are an excellent visual and written communicator who is able to clearly communicate your design work and justify your design decisions
• You have experience with advanced modern-day UX/UI tools (e.g. Figma, Sketch). 
• You understand systems thinking and component-based design patterns
• You give and receive feedback well, supporting and improving the work of your colleagues as well as your own

Datadog values people from all walks of life. We understand not everyone will meet all the above qualifications on day one. That's okay. If you’re passionate about technology and want to grow your skills, we encourage you to apply.

Benefits and Growth: 

• New hire stock equity (RSUs) and employee stock purchase plan (ESPP)
• Continuous professional development, product training, and career pathing
• Intradepartmental mentor and buddy program for in-house networking
• An inclusive company culture, ability to join our Community Guilds (Datadog employee resource groups)
• Access to Inclusion Talks, our internal panel discussions
• Free, global mental health benefits for employees and dependents age 6+
• Competitive global benefits

Benefits and Growth listed above may vary based on the country of your employment and the nature of your employment with Datadog.
