Senior Product Designer - Click UI

Overview

Own the design side of Click UI, ClickHouse's open source design system, as an embedded member of a solution-oriented product team.

What you'll do

• Own the design system in Figma and the design decisions that determine how components look and feel across the ClickHouse ecosystem.
• Work directly with contributors and consumers of Click UI to improve the system and drive adoption of new and existing components.
• Communicate designs through wireframes, prototypes, and visual mockups, iterating quickly on feedback.
• Partner closely with a product team, including product managers and engineers, as a trusted, embedded collaborator rather than a separate creative function.
• Use AI tools to accelerate your workflow, automate repetitive tasks, and improve both code and design quality.
• Contribute to design feedback sessions with internal and external stakeholders to validate assumptions.
• Advocate for product quality and user experience, even when you have to create the guardrails yourself.

What you'll need

• Strong visual design fundamentals and experience building and maintaining a design system.
• Proven experience designing for complex software applications, ideally in B2B SaaS or developer tools.
• Advanced proficiency in Figma, including components, prototyping, and design systems.
• Frontend engineering skills: you write CSS, React, and TypeScript, and you're comfortable in a real codebase.
• Experience owning products end to end, working directly with developers and product managers.
• Enthusiasm for AI tools and an active practice of using them in design, engineering, workflows, or all of the above.
• Energy for the startup pace, including the ambiguity and shifting priorities that come with scaling a company with as much potential as ClickHouse.

Nice to have

• Experience owning multi-brand design systems or the same design system across multiple tech stacks; experience designing IDEs, data products, or other technical developer tooling.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted design or engineering workflows (Cursor, Copilot, Figma MCP, v0, etc.), open source contributions or an active GitHub presence, and experience in a fast-moving, globally distributed startup.
