The platform includes industry leading products in CI/CD, Feature Flags, Cloud Cost Management, Service Reliability, Chaos Engineering, Software Engineering Insights, Internal Developer Experience, API discovery, observability, governance, and runtime protection. Over the past year, Harness powered 128M deployments, 81M builds, 1.2T API calls protected, and $1.9B in cloud spend optimized, helping customers like United Airlines and Choice Hotels accelerate releases by up to 75% and achieve 10x Dev Ops efficiency.

With employees in over 25 countries, Harness is shaping the future of AI-driven software delivery — and we’re looking for exceptional talent to help us move even faster.

At Harness, design quality and innovation matters. We’re looking for a UI-focused Product Designer who sets a high bar for visual excellence, polish, and consistency across complex product surfaces. This role is for designers who care deeply about craft — designers who sweat the details, elevate interaction quality, and turn sophisticated technical workflows into clear, confident, and beautiful product experiences.

You’ll help define the future of Harness’ developer-facing products by shaping how our platform looks, feels, and behaves  are opinionated, design-driven, and skilled at transforming complexity into clarity. You’ve shipped enterprise software before, understand the rigor required for large systems, and know how to maintain visual quality across multiple releases.

• Partner closely with Design Systems to evolve components, patterns, and tokens that raise the quality bar across Harness.

• Drive design work from concept through execution, collaborating with Product Management and Engineering to ship high-quality experiences.
• Translate product requirements and technical constraints into intuitive, elegant interfaces.
• Serve as a design partner to engineering teams during implementation, ensuring fidelity and quality in shipped UI.
• Provide thoughtful critique and raise the visual design bar across the broader design team.

• Ground UI and interaction decisions in customer needs, usability feedback, and real-world product usage.
• Evaluate existing experiences and proactively identify opportunities to improve clarity, efficiency, and aesthetic quality.
• Own outcomes post-launch by measuring impact, gathering feedback, and continuously refining visual and interaction details.

• 5+ years of hands‑on product design experience, including meaningful experience designing enterprise or developer-facing software.
• A portfolio that…
