Designer Who Codes
Location: Remote (American or European time zones) or Boulder, Colorado
(See: Design Engineer, Product Designer with code experience, Front-end Engineer with a design focus...)
Zed is looking for an exceptionally technical designer to help us build the world's most advanced code editor.
In this role, you will:
- Work directly in Rust source code and collaborate with a small team of application engineers to implement features that make developers more productive
- Improve Zed's design system to make application development more efficient while keeping Zed's UI beautiful and consistent
- Help shape the product roadmap and build a strong vision for the next generation in developer tooling
We'd love to hear from you if:
- You love code and understand developer tools
- You enjoy working in a code editor as much as you do in Figma
- You're detail-oriented and have great taste
- You enjoy operating on the bleeding edge, work well with ambiguity, and ship
- You have 5+ years of professional experience in a design or front-end development role
- You are excited to learn Rust and get your hands dirty creating interfaces in Zed's custom-built UI framework, GPUI
If this sounds exciting to you, please send us an email including your name, geographic location, resume, and a link to your portfolio. Please also share why you're excited to work on Zed and any ideas you have for improving Zed's design.
