Senior Product Designer (San Francisco)

Senior Product Designer

Semgrep is on a mission to make it expensive to exploit software. As the team behind the most popular SAST, we built the Semgrep AppSec Platform to deliver industry-leading code, dependency, and secrets scanning to enable organizations to ship secure code quickly without slowing down development.

With fast, customizable code analysis across large codebases, Semgrep helps teams catch vulnerabilities early and fix them faster. Leading companies like Snowflake, Plaid, Figma, Lyft, and Dropbox rely on Semgrep to secure their software.

Semgrep is funded by top investors, including Felicis Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Menlo Ventures, Redpoint Ventures, and Sequoia Capital.

About the Role

We are seeking a Product Designer to help expand our small design team of two. As a member of the team, you'll work with engineers, PMs, and design peers to research, create, and refine world-class product experiences for security and software engineers. You'll make complex workflows and technical topics accessible to a broad audience of engineers and security stakeholders, all while securing some of the world's most important code (Slack, Shopify, Dropbox, GitLab, Plaid, Snowflake, Lyft, One Medical, and more)! Through Semgrep's culture of being audacious, doing things fast, and relentlessly improving, you will impact and influence everything we do at this growth-stage company.

What You'll Do

• Rapidly prototype concepts to test hypotheses. Collaborate with product managers and engineers to execute shippable solutions.
• Contribute to and lead strategic decisions around product definitions and roadmaps, grounding decisions in user needs and insights.
• Advocate for simple, consistent, and thoughtfully designed product workflows across Semgrep's products.
• Regularly interact with users and synthesize the knowledge you gain about them, their needs, and their workflows.
• Collaborate with other designers and provide feedback and critique during review sessions.
• Mentor and guide other members of the design team. Educate and create tools to help non-designers make better tactical design decisions.
• Build effective working relationships across functions and involve the wider team in the design process.
