About the role
Who you are
- Experience designing for developer tools, APIs, or technical workflows, with a strong grasp of how application systems work and developer pain points
- Curiosity and empathy for engineers and technical users, paired with a knack for turning research insights into practical, user-centered design decisions
- Fluency in iterative design methods — from discovery and research through wireframing, prototyping, and validation — and the judgment to know which approach fits the problem at hand. You can move fluidly between lightweight exploration and polished detail, choosing the right level of fidelity to drive clarity and decision-making
- Understanding of how underlying data structures influence user experience design, particularly in complex technical environments
- A collaborative mindset: you thrive in triads and across disciplines, inviting feedback, busting silos, and helping shape product direction alongside PM, EM, and peers
- Ownership and autonomy: you bring a clear design point of view, identify opportunities proactively, and balance bold vision with pragmatic execution
- Communication skills that make complex design ideas accessible and inspiring to diverse audiences
- A bias toward learning and iteration: you treat every project as an experiment, adapt based on evidence, and consistently move work forward
- Nice-to-have: Prior experience with observability, monitoring, APM, or DevOps tools
What the job involves
- As a Senior Product Designer on the Explore team, you'll be designing for the beating heart of Honeycomb — the core investigative workflows that every engineer depends on to debug incidents and understand their systems
- You'll drive design from discovery to delivery for Honeycomb's primary data exploration interface, working to transform complex observability workflows into intuitive, accessible experiences that empower all engineers, not just experts
- This is a highly collaborative role where you'll partner closely with product and engineering to reimagine how engineers visualize and interact with their telemetry data and democratize advanced debugging capabilities
- Build deep empathy for engineers and technical users who need to visualize, ask, and answer questions of their telemetry data to investigate and solve problems in their day-to-day work, understanding their goals and unmet needs
- Drive an iterative design process through research, ideation, and rapid prototyping (including AI-driven prototypes), creating feedback loops with product and engineering
- Collaborate within your triad to explore, experiment, and ship features in quick cycles — surfacing opportunities, mitigating risks, supporting prioritization and moving from concept to production
- Define workflows, interaction models, and paths to value that make Honeycomb's powerful data exploration capabilities more accessible and intuitive. Design experiences that showcase the unique power of Honeycomb to help engineers understand their systems better, faster, and with greater precision
- Conduct user research through interviews, usability testing, and other methodologies to validate design decisions and inform product direction, working directly with customers throughout the design process
- Share your learnings, prototypes, and design perspective widely — helping to establish Honeycomb's design voice in the observability space and contributing to the broader design culture
Benefits
- 100% covered medical, dental, vision, HSA, FSA, disability, and more
- Unlimited PTO, synchronous company break, paid sabbatical, and expressed minimum for time to recharge
- 401K retirement plans and fully paid life insurance
- Up to 16 weeks paid leave regardless of path to parenthood; flexible hours for returning parents and caregivers
- $10K to cover gaps in insurance, in support of adoption, surrogacy, preservation, and family-planning costs
- $600 per year to spend on the perks you care for most
- A stake in our success
- Generous new hire equity, and refresh grants
- Annual $1,500 development stipend; funding for cognitive coaching; and a focus on career pathing
- $500 new hire home setup stipend and $200/mo for wifi, phone and co-working
