Job Overview
Join the Developer Design Group within Intuit’s Platform and Development Xceleration (PDX) Group as a Staff Product Designer, where you’ll lead the end-to-end design strategy for Cloud Workspace—a critical platform that enables Intuit developers to launch fully provisioned cloud-based environments in seconds. Cloud Workspace eliminates local setup barriers and accelerates the ability to code securely, consistently, and efficiently. As a senior individual contributor, you will drive strategic design initiatives, partner with engineering and product teams, and shape experiences that impact developer productivity at scale across Intuit.
As a Staff Designer, you’ll lead design for Cloud Workspace, collaborating across a deeply technical, cross-functional ecosystem. You’ll bring clarity to complex problems, craft scalable and intuitive solutions, and influence design quality across the platform.
Responsibilities
• Lead design for Cloud Workspace, defining how developers spin up, customize, and operate in cloud-native dev environments. • Drive platform-level thinking—ensuring consistency, scalability, and usability across the broader PDX developer experience. • Translate developer workflows, tooling constraints, and infrastructure requirements into cohesive, intuitive experiences. • Work closely with engineering and product teams to align on feasibility, architecture, and roadmap direction. • Champion the use and evolution of the Intuit Design System (IDS); contribute new patterns and provide editorial feedback. • Conduct or partner on research efforts to gather developer insights, validate design hypotheses, and fill data gaps. • Use dashboards, telemetry, and experiments to define success criteria and evaluate impact. • Communicate design strategy, rationale, and impact to cross-functional partners and senior leadership with clarity and influence. • Mentor junior and mid-level designers, and contribute to the growth of craft culture within the Developer Design Group.
Qualifications
- 7+ years of product design experience, with a portfolio that demonstrates impact on highly technical or platform products.
- Expertise designing for developer tools, cloud platforms, or infrastructure-as-code workflows.
- Strong interaction and systems thinking skills—capable of solving for flexibility, reuse, and end-to-end consistency.
- Deep understanding of technical domains like CI/CD, IDE environments, containerization, or developer onboarding.
- Fluency in Figma and industry-standard design tools, and familiarity with analytics tools (e.g., Amplitude, Looker).
- Experience using qualitative and quantitative data to inform design decisions and define success metrics.
- Strong communicator, facilitator, and storyteller with the ability to align stakeholders and advocate for user needs.
- Comfortable navigating ambiguity and balancing platform constraints with ideal user experiences. Bonus Points
- Experience designing cloud-based IDEs (e.g., GitHub Codespaces, JetBrains Gateway) or remote dev environments.
- Background in designing internal platforms, with deep empathy for software engineers and their workflows.
- Familiarity with infrastructure provisioning, telemetry systems, or secure development pipelines.
