United States Digital Space LLC is hiring: Senior Staff Visual Designer, Design

United States Digital Space LLC · New York, NY, USA ·

Job type:
Full Time

the company is entering a new chapter in how our product looks, feels and operates. We’re building a small, high-leverage Design Lab team to define that evolution, and we’re looking for a Senior Staff Visual Designer to help author it.
Our design system powers everything we ship. Now we’re ready to evolve it. As the company expands into AI-driven experiences and more complex product surfaces, the visual language needs to grow with it. We’re looking for someone who can help define that next phase, someone with taste, judgment, and the confidence to shape how the product feels at scale.
At the company, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.
What You’ll Do Define and evolve the company’s visual language across product surfaces.
Establish the visual quality bar for the platform.
Lead exploratory and concept work that pushes our system forward.
Translate bold visual ideas into scalable patterns that can live inside a design system.
Partner deeply with Brand, Product Design, and Design Systems to unify expression across product and marketing.
Influence executive stakeholders through clear, compelling visual storytelling.
Prototype, test, and refine new patterns before they become systemized.
Help shape how visual direction is integrated into our design process.
You will report directly to the Design Director and work as part of a small, focused team defining the future state before it scales across hundreds of designers and engineers.
Who You Are You have 12+ years of experience in visual and/or product design
You have led a meaningful visual evolution or rebrand within a mature product ecosystem.
You have strong taste and are comfortable defending a point of view.
You know how to translate brand into scalable product systems.
You think in systems, but you’re motivated by craft.
You’re comfortable operating in ambiguity and defining direction where none exists.
You can influence across design, engineering, and executive partners.
Your portfolio demonstrates exceptional visual craft and product thinking — not just applied systems work.
