About the job
Join us as a Senior Interaction Designer in our Design Lab where you'll lead the charge in revolutionizing how motion and AI-driven interactions function across all Datadog products. Your expertise in motion design will enhance clarity, express the intelligence of our systems, and elevate craftsmanship across our product suite.
The Design Lab sits at the crossroads of design and engineering, dedicated to refining our craft and developing shared design capabilities that facilitate outstanding user experiences at scale. Collaborate closely with design systems and product teams to evolve our visual language while ensuring its scalability across one of the most intricate SaaS platforms in the industry.
This is an exhilarating opportunity for a visionary product creator eager to embrace emerging technologies and shape the future of large-scale design. You’ll work across multiple mediums—pixels, code, and AI—to advance Datadog’s design language, contribute to the design system, establish design patterns, evolve design tools, and foster excellence across various products. This role is ideal for someone passionate about empowering teams through innovative systems and enhancing motion design and visual craftsmanship throughout the product ecosystem.
Your contributions will influence our entire ecosystem, steering the future of user experience through AI tools and prototyping. This is not a role focused on maintenance or governance; it’s a forward-looking position for a designer with refined visual sensibility and the ability to engage and inspire others. Our team thrives on strong cross-functional relationships, thoughtful critiques, and high standards.
At Datadog, we value our office culture—the relationships and collaboration it fosters and the creativity it nurtures. We operate as a hybrid workplace, allowing our Datadogs to achieve a harmonious work-life balance that suits them best.
