Staff Product Designer, Knowledge Graph

About the Role

As a Staff Product Designer, you’ll lead design for cross-cutting platform experiences–the foundational elements that touch every workflow regardless of stage. This role requires deep collaboration; every decision ripples across the product. You’ll partner closely with Product Management, Engineering, and designers cross stages to translate ambiguity into clear direction, define solutions, and ship work that meaningfully improves the experience for developers and DevSecOps teams.

Your initial focus will be leading design for Knowledge Graph–a foundational capability that connects information across the platform and enables smarter, more context-aware experiences. This work will require deep systems thinking, understanding how data relationships surface throughout the product, and defining patterns that other teams can build upon.

This role is project-based, solving persistent problems that span organizational boundaries and require a holistic view of the product. Along the way, you’ll share knowledge, contribute to our Pajamas Design System, and mentor other designers. Staff designers are key culture carriers who model collaboration, iterative ways of working while pushing the bar on craft.

What You’ll Do

• Lead design on platform experience – Drive the end-to-end design process for cross-cutting features and workflows that impact users across the product. Define both tactical deliverables that solve immediate user problems and strategic outputs that connect to longer-term platform vision.
• Partner cross-functionally – Coordinate across multiple groups to align on platform-level experiences. Work closely with Product Managers and Engineering Managers to shape priorities, scope MVCs, and ensure design intent is maintained through development.
• Elevate craft and quality – Demonstrate excellence in interaction design, visual design, and systems thinking. Raise the quality bar through thoughtful feedback in design reviews and by modeling high standards in your own work.
• Contribute to the design system – Actively contribute to Pajamas by identifying reusable patterns, proposing new components, and ensuring your group’s work extends and adheres to system standards.
• Mentor and support others – Coach Product Designers and Senior Product Designers through pairing, design critiques, and knowledge sharing. Help onboard new team members and contri
