Who We Are:

By performing incremental and consistent data transformations, Materialize makes live data accessible throughout your organization. Build operational data meshes, offload queries, join data sets, and act on the results before they move to colder storage for historical analysis.

About The Role: 

Materialize makes building with real-time data familiar and accessible. As a Staff Product Designer at Materialize, you will work closely with team members across the company, including the CEO, our R&D team, and our Go-to-Market team.

You will own the user experience of Materialize’s Console product. The Console is the home of many critical workflows, including first-time onboarding, monitoring and observability, and admin and billing. You will use your expertise in our customers, their use cases, and the technical capabilities of our underlying product to ensure that we ship solutions our users love.

You will also collaborate with our CEO and Go-to-Market team to articulate and showcase Materialize’s value proposition to customers, prospects, and the broader market. By working closely with the team members involved in pitching Materialize, you will ensure that our brand and related designs resonate with a technical audience.

This role sits within our Product organization and reports directly to our Head of Product.

About You:

  • You love technology, but you also care about the people who use it (our customers!)
  • You have 5+ years of experience, with meaningful experience designing for data infrastructure or data tooling
  • You have a keen eye for visual storytelling and understand how to design experiences that reflect both the functionality and the brand identity of a product
  • You have a demonstrated ability to lead large and complex design projects
  • You have excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • You are based in New York and excited about coming to our office (in Astor Place) at least three days a week

Responsibilities:

  • Become an authoritative expert in your product area, allowing you to translate complex concepts and functionality into simple interfaces that our users understand and love
  • Lead the evolution of Materialize’s visual identity, ensuring consistency across the product, website, marketing collateral, and other customer-facing assets
  • Proactively manage a portfolio of projects to balance short-term goals against long-term vision
  • Drive solution validation for design projects by conducting research, incorporating learned insights, and documenting each step along the way
  • Share designs with the Product and Engineering teams early to facilitate quick iteration cycles
  • Improve the Product Design function and our processes to help us ship better and faster

Salary: $175,000 - 200,000/year + Equity 

 

We understand it takes a diverse team of highly intelligent, passionate, curious, and creative people to develop the exceptional product we are building. Our dynamic team has incredible perspectives to share, just as we know you do, and we take great pride in being an equal opportunity employer.

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
