This is a unique chance to influence a flagship product that will impact organizations worldwide.

If you’re eager to apply your design expertise to groundbreaking technology and make a significant impact in the industry, we’d love to hear from you.

We're looking for someone with excellent problem-solving skills who can decompose complex problems and lead other designers to produce simple, intuitive experiences for people who are building AI-powered applications. As a Principal User Experience Designer, you will:

  1. Consider an end-to-end user experience that spans product onboarding, usage, and support across multiple technical areas.

  9. Build relationships with engineers and product managers to support successful development.
  10. Identify usability issues and make solid recommendations for improvement, working with stakeholders to prioritize against competing requirements.
  11. Actively participate in PatternFly, our community-built design system, as both a user and contributor.
  12. Make time for fellow designers to provide feedback and mentorship.

What you will bring

  1. Experience advocating for a high-quality user experience through every step of the process and across team boundaries.
  2. A drive to collaborate across teams and to explain your ideas and process to other people.
  3. Experience using data to inform design decisions.
