### Who you are
- Get more satisfaction from making fifty designers and engineers faster than from shipping one feature yourself
- Nerd out over component APIs, variant structures, and tokenization and naming conventions in Figma
- Love working shoulder-to-shoulder with engineers and understand the constraints and possibilities of React, CSS, and the DOM
- Care deeply about consistency but know when a pattern needs to flex for a specific use case
- Find it rewarding to turn a messy audit into a clean, opinionated set of guidelines
- Believe in open source and the idea that good design infrastructure is a public good
- 5+ years designing complex software products, with meaningful experience in a design systems team at a comparable scale
- Deep fluency with Figma's design systems tooling — components, variants, variables, auto layout, shared libraries, and branching workflows
- Strong visual and interaction design skills with a sharp eye for spacing, hierarchy, and micro-interactions
- Experience collaborating closely with frontend engineers on component implementation — you can speak to props, states, and edge cases
- Comfortable creating and maintaining design documentation, usage guidelines, and contribution processes
- Able to balance long-term system thinking with the practical needs of product teams shipping on tight timelines
- Bonus: hands-on experience with HTML/CSS, React, or Storybook; contributions to open-source design systems

### What the job involves
- Sentry is looking for a Senior Product Designer to help own and evolve our design system — the shared components, patterns, and guidelines that keep our product consistent, accessible, and efficient to build
- You'll work at the intersection of design and engineering, partnering closely with our product design and front-end engineers to design, spec, and refine the components of our design system, Scraps
- This means thinking carefully about how a select menu behaves across dozens of contexts, how a form system should be structured for flexibility and consistency, or how to consolidate five slightly different button patterns into one that actually works everywhere
- This isn't a typical product design role
- You won't be designing features end-to-end — you'll be designing the building blocks that make feature work better
- You'll audit existing patterns, identify inconsistencies, define when and how components should be used, and create documentation and Figma libraries that help designers and engineers move faster with confidence
- Own the component libraries, variables, and styles that define Sentry's design language — keeping them accurate, well-documented, and in sync with what's built in code
- Partner directly with design engineers to spec new components, refine existing ones, and ensure design intent translates cleanly into implementation
- Audit the product for pattern inconsistencies and drive consolidation — defining clear guidance for when to use what
- Create and maintain documentation, usage guidelines, and Storybook stories that help designers and engineers use the system correctly
- Build shared tools like lint rules, templates, and contribution workflows that scale consistency without slowing teams down
- Advocate for the design system across product teams — fielding questions, reviewing component usage, and coaching designers on best practices

### Benefits
- Competitive Compensation + Equity
- 401k Plan
- Medical, Dental, Vision Insurance
- Commuter Stipend
- Professional Development Stipend
- Health & Wellness Benefits
- Charitable Matching Program
- Flexible PTO
- Paid Parental Leave
