San Francisco, California, United States Sanity Full time


We are looking for a Staff Product Designer to lead design on our Studio Developer Experience team. This is a remote role in Europe or North America (East Coast/EST).

Who are we?



is a modern, flexible content platform that replaces rigid legacy content management systems so companies like PUMA, Spotify, Figma, Riot Games, and Skims can create amazing digital experiences for their customers.



One of our big differentiators is treating content as data so that it can be stored in a single source of truth but seamlessly adapted and personalized for any channel without extra effort. Forward-thinking companies choose Sanity because they can create tailored content authoring experiences, customized workflows, and content models that reflect their business.

Backed by Netlify, Vercel, the founders of Twitter and Medium, Heroku's ex-CEO, and leading VCs like ICONIQ Growth, Threshold Ventures, and Lead Edge Capital, Sanity is at the epicenter of the modern digital product development stack.

You can only build a great company with a great culture. Read about our values and join us in building a diverse and inclusive team.



About the Role

We are on a quest to redefine how teams communicate with their audiences in the age of real-time collaboration and high-context AI assistance. As a staff designer on the Studio DX team, you will be at the heart of that process, pulling together signals from all of our teams, our community, and customers and defining the very platform this is all being built upon.

The Sanity Studio is our content authoring application, but it is also an application framework both we and our customers use to build new editorial experiences. At its heart is the design system and component library, and your core task would be to maintain and drive its development, thus helping content teams worldwide have more effective and inspired workdays.

Along with our head of design and our product organization, you will define the principles and practices that make up this framework. We expect you to be a great collaborator and synthesizer, delivering a design system that is reflective of our goals across the company without resorting to compromise. You are able to produce exemplary visual design, but also to understand how this is conveyed in code and made available to developers in the most helpful way.

What you will be doing

  • Lead design on the Studio DX team.
  • Strengthen our leadership position in the market.
  • Work in a group of like-minded, inspiring individuals to drive development and set standards.
  • Design systems that set teams and customers up to rapidly and assuredly deliver solutions with excellent usability and efficiency.
  • Own our design and component systems.
  • Develop insights through tactical research with enterprise customers and stakeholders.
  • Facilitate discovery to arrive at unique solutions to complex problems.
  • Help shape our design community through regular design reviews and explorations on your colleagues' projects.
  • Help manage the team along with your Engineering and Product Manager peers.
  • Work on cross-team initiatives that have a broad impact on the product.
  • Offer mentorship to Designers, and raise design literacy across the org.
  • Continually elevate the quality of the team's output through provocation and inspiration.
  • Help foster a culture based on Sanity's values.

There are many roads leading up to being a Staff Product Designer. Our team is already a mix of self-taught and formally educated people. Don't self-select out

This may be you

  • Systems thinker with web development experience.
  • Relentless champion for the user, whether content creator or developer.

  • Adept at designing for systems at scale.
  • Excellent communicator, both verbal and non-verbal.
