WorkOS Design
Open roles
Introduce us to your team
WorkOS is a developer platform that helps make apps enterprise-ready. We build tools and services for developers to help them implement features like Single Sign-On, Directory Sync, Multi-Factor Auth, and Audit Logs. We're a fully-distributed team with employees across US and EU time zones. We're well-funded, having recently raised an $80M Series B. Customers include Webflow, Vercel, PlanetScale, Loom, Airbase, and many more of today’s fastest growing SaaS companies.
The growing design team at WorkOS is a small, but mighty globally distributed group. Comprised of high impact product designers and builders, we create complex and dense user interfaces for developer tools and SaaS products. We think in systems, are passionate about developer experience, and believe in making strategic decisions informed by customer feedback.
We come together with the rest of the WorkOS crew every Friday and share what we’ve been working on, chat about what’s next, and start the weekend off right with some tunes.
What are your team rituals?
We believe in tight feedback loops and constant iteration. We pour over the details not just of how a design looks or behaves, but also how it is built and who is building it. We work alongside engineering to ship updates to the components and patterns in our design system, WorkDS, which is based on Radix.
Being a distributed remote team, we value having deep focus time, moving fast, and being radically transparent. We don't believe in process for process sake and don'y rely on meetings as the primary tool for work. Each week, we only have two core meetings for the design team:
-
Tuesday: both product and brand designers sync to review work and plans for the week
-
Thursday: a product design focused critique to
We leverage async communication tools and ad-hoc Zoom calls to collaborate, validate our thinking, and unblock each other. Cross-functionally, we also meet regularly with product teams (across eng, product, and design) to review work-in-process and establish high-level priorities.
