About Stainless
Stainless is a fast-growing tech startup building the future of APIs. Our customers include industry leaders like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Cloudflare.
We have raised over $35 million from a16z, Sequoia, and founders/C-levels from Stripe, Datadog, Segment, Linear, and more.
We are headquartered in NYC, just west of SoHo, and are a team of ~60 strong expecting to double in the next ~9 to 12 months.
About The Role You'll shape the complete developer experience at Stainless — designing the product interfaces developers use to build with our API Platform and creating the brand identity and marketing presence that brings them to us. We're looking for a product design generalist who gets excited about complex, technical products and can work across the full spectrum of design. Beyond individual contributions, you'll help establish Stainless's design culture and grow our design team.
This is an in-person role based in New York City.

Design and integrate new products with the Stainless Platform
Refine existing functionality and lead design on greenfield projects from inception to launch
Evolve the Stainless website and marketing assets
Create a polished, cohesive design language across product and brand
Translate complex, ambiguous workflows into beautiful, intuitive interfaces
Guide your designs into production through close collaboration with engineering
Design culture & team
Drive a culture of polish and user-centricity across the company
Help develop our user research practice—conducting research and synthesizing insights into designs
Contribute to hiring and shaping the design team as we grow
Who you are Core requirements:
5+ years of design experience as a designer
Strong portfolio demonstrating work across both product and brand design
Deep understanding of how developers think, with ability to design for technical audiences
Strong collaborator who works well cross-functionally with engineers
Comfortable conducting user research and translating findings into design decisions
Able to reason about complex workflows and simplify them through design
Nice to haves:
Not afraid of frontend code—ideally able to implement many of your own designs
Comfortable building interactive prototypes (HTML/CSS/JS)
Experience designing developer-focused products
Technical understanding of APIs, codegen, or similar infrastructure concepts
You'll thrive here if you have deep respect for engineering constraints, enjoy working closely with technical teams, and want to help build something from the early stages.
Benefits
We offer competitive salary and generous equity grants.
Great healthcare coverage options (e.g., fully covered platinum plans).
Paid commuter benefits & similar.
Paid team lunch/meals during workdays.
Flexible PTO plus 3 weeks of company-wide vacation a year (2 weeks in December, 1 week at the end of the summer).
