Overview GitHub is looking for an experienced Product Designer to join the Design team. At GitHub, we build solutions that improve the developer experience so they can learn, collaborate, automate, build, and deliver software with quality and confidence. In this role you’ll have the opportunity to work extensively on designing Security, Enterprise and Platform products at GitHub.
We’re looking for a high‑craft, detail‑oriented, systems‑minded designer who thinks end‑to‑end and brings strong critical thinking to complex problem spaces. This person can zoom out to define cohesive journeys across products, and zoom in to sweat the details—interaction, language, and overall UX quality. Familiarity with frontend languages and coding concepts is important to navigate ambiguity, partner effectively with engineering, and help advance ideas through prototypes and code‑based concepts.
The GitHub Product Design Team is a group of talented individuals with varied backgrounds in product design, design systems, design ops, front-end development, and illustration. You'll prioritize customer experiences, working closely with systems designers, engineers, technical writers, and product management to create and push for high-quality design. You will collaborate on platform-wide and AI-driven UX solutions, partnering across disciplines to champion high standards, inspire transformative solutions, and continually expand your expertise at the intersection of vision and detail. We are looking for an excellent communicator who aligns and influences cross‑functional partners, navigates ambiguity and constraints with clarity, thinks in systems, raises the quality bar, and actively grows the team through mentorship, feedback, and strong craft leadership.
Staff Product Designers at GitHub are expert individual contributors; they're given a lot of autonomy and trust to work on our most impactful design projects. For this specific role, you will report directly to the Senior Director of Product Design.
