ClickHouse is recognized as one of the most innovative and fast-growing private cloud companies, focusing on real-time analytics and data warehousing. They are seeking a Product Designer who will own the core platform experience, collaborate closely with engineers and product managers, and leverage AI tools to enhance design and development workflows.
Responsibilities:
- Owning the design and frontend quality of core platform areas, from initial concept through to production
- Jumping into the codebase to fix UI bugs and ship polish directly
- Communicating designs through wireframes, prototypes, and visual mockups, and iterating quickly based on feedback
- Partnering closely with product managers and engineers as a trusted, embedded collaborator, not a separate creative function
- Using AI tools to accelerate your workflow, automate repetitive tasks, and improve code quality
- Contributing to design feedback sessions with internal and external stakeholders to validate assumptions
- Advocating for product quality and user experience, even when you have to create the guardrails yourself
Requirements:
- Proven experience designing for complex software applications, ideally in B2B SaaS or developer tools
- Genuine frontend engineering skills: you write React, TypeScript, and CSS, and you're comfortable in a real codebase
- Strong visual design fundamentals and a sharp eye for UI quality and craft
- Experience owning products end-to-end, working directly with developers and Product Managers
- Advanced proficiency in Figma, including components, prototyping, and design systems
- Enthusiasm for AI tools and an active practice of using them in design, engineering, workflows, or all of the above
- You are energized by the startup pace, including the ambiguity and shifting priorities that come with scaling and growing a company with as much potential as ClickHouse
- Experience with SQL consoles, data products, or 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
- Experience in a fast-moving, globally distributed startup environment
