• 7+ years of product design experience, with great examples of delivering results that impact the business.
• Ownership instinct. You see features through from design to production. Delivery is part of your definition of done.
• Excellent cross-team project delivery. You can work with limited context, clarify what matters, define the scope, and move projects forward across teams without needing constant hand-holding.
• Active AI user. You use AI tools in your design workflow. You’ve experimented with building or prototyping with Cursor, Claude, or similar. This market moves weekly; you should too.
• Solid Figma skills. Proficient with components, tokens/variables, and design systems — you can navigate an existing UI kit, understand how it works, and contribute new components as the product grows.
• Experience with developer-focused products or technical tooling (IDEs, dashboards, data tools)
• Experience with vibe-coding, design engineering, or code-level prototypes
• Familiarity with agentic or AI-native interface patterns — trust signals, human-in-the-loop, error handling at scale
• Rare product scope. Work on a product that could define the next generation of developer tooling — small team, direct impact, decisions that ship fast.
• JetBrains’ culture. Engineering-first, quality-focused, 100% private. No VC pressure, no artificial growth targets.
• Competitive compensation and benefits — location-dependent, with a full breakdown available on request.
