Product Designer II - Vault

What We Do
We design and build workflows to enable our customers to secure their applications and protect sensitive information data. We focus on enabling platform teams and their customers (typically developers) to adopt and improve strong security practices.

We do this with the user at heart and our ‘beauty works better’ principle in hand. We believe the design process can and should feel satisfying for stakeholders, continually improve with insights, and regularly deliver positive outcomes for our business.

What You’ll Do
Vault is a complex product customers rely on to secure their most critical systems and workloads. If you love solving interesting, novel problems, this is a role you’ll enjoy. You will work closely with other Product Designers, Product Managers, and Engineers to research, define, execute, and deliver high-quality designs.

As part of a distributed, remote-first team, you’ll create seamless experiences by delivering research plans, user flows, mockups, and prototypes to help communicate design directions to the team. You will apply Hashicorp’s Helios Design System and help elevate our design quality.
