Job description
We’re looking for a Product Designer with a talent for designing data visualizations. You’ll be working as a designer on the Dataviz Design Team translating business needs and user insights into designs for visualizations that help users understand and troubleshoot their cloud infrastructure. You’ll work within the product design team and collaborate with other designers and engineers to build custom, interactive visualizations that are central to Datadog’s observability products.
At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
What You’ll Do:
- Work with other product designers, product managers, and engineers, to understand how our customers use visualizations across Datadog and what they need to succeed
- Design interactive visualizations shared across multiple Datadog products
- Design exploratory and explanatory visualizations alongside automated insights into infrastructure, security, networking, and other observability data.
- See your design work through from start to finish: gain insights from user research, sketch ideas, build prototypes, and communicate with engineers that build the products and features that make Datadog better
- Become an expert in visualizations and your product area
- Communicate both your design work and the support for your design decisions across the company
- Work closely with engineering teams to understand how your designs will be built
Who You Are:
- You have 6+ years of experience in digital product design
- You have experience building code-based prototypes with D3.js or similar visualization frameworks and knowledge of advanced design tools (e.g. Figma, or Framer)
- Your portfolio includes a proven track record of designing visualizations for interactive web applications
- You are an excellent visual and written communicator, able to clearly communicate your design work and the support for your design decisions
- You understand systems thinking and component-based design patterns
- You give and receive feedback well, supporting and improving the work of your colleagues as well as your own
