Shape a product that keeps our digital world awake
We’re on a mission to make downtime invisible. Thousands of DevOps and IT teams - from scale-ups to enterprises - use our incident-management platform 24/7 to react faster and communicate outages clearly.
As our first dedicated product designer, you’ll own the end-to-end user experience across web and mobile, turning complex, high-stakes workflows into delightfully simple interactions.
What you’ll do
Discover & define
* Talk to users, dig into metrics and run usability tests to uncover real pains
* Frame scenarios and success metrics that matter (MTTR, alert fatigue, NPS)
Design & develop
* Craft low- to high-fidelity wireframes and interactive prototypes in your preferred tool
* Evolve and govern ilert’s cross-platform design system (Web + Mobile)
* Balance clarity and density in data-rich dashboards and timeline views
Deliver & iterate
* Hand off pixel-perfect specs and pair with engineers in GitHub & Storybook
* Validate releases with A/B tests and continuous user feedback loops
* Champion accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA) and performance best practices
What makes you a great fit
* 3+ years designing production SaaS interfaces end-to-end
* Portfolio that proves user-centric thinking, visual craft and shipped impact
* Mastery of Figma (auto-layout, variants, tokens) and basic motion/animation
* Hands-on with design systems, component libraries and responsive layouts
* Fluency in English (our working language); German is a bonus
* Solid grasp of HTML/CSS limits and possibilities - enough to speak dev
Bonus points
* Designed for technical audiences (DevOps, SRE, cloud engineers)
* Ran quantitative research (surveys, funnel analytics) or A/B experiments
* Experience with real-time data products
