Posted 3 years ago

Harness is a rapidly growing startup that is disrupting the software delivery market. We are building an intelligent software delivery platform that enables engineers to deliver software faster, with higher quality, and less effort. The Harness Software Delivery Platform includes Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, Continuous Efficiency, Continuous Verification, and Continuous Features. The platform is designed to help companies accelerate their cloud initiatives as well as their adoption of containers and orchestration tools like Kubernetes and Amazon ECS.

Harness is led by technologist and entrepreneur, Jyoti Bansal, who founded AppDynamics and sold it to Cisco for $3.7 Billion. We’re backed with $60M Series-B funding from top-tier VC firms Menlo Ventures, IVP, GV (formerly Google Ventures), and ServiceNow Ventures.

POSITION SUMMARY

You will help define the future of Harness product experiences. You can envision the complex UX landscape of CI/CD and can craft an unrivaled experience for our customers while you inspire teams around you to reach higher standards. You are opinionated - your instincts sharpened by your years of designing for complex domains, and you ship world-class products. And yet you remain curious, you learn from customers, experts around you and you pursue excellence in product design.

In this role, you will apply your skills in design and negotiations to guide research, design processes and go from idea to product design specifications. You’ll collaborate with other members on the UX team, Product Management, Engineering and Customer Success teams. You will conduct customer research, evaluate the usability of existing products in the CI/CD ecosystem to better define simpler solutions. Our team is growing, and you will find yourself wearing multiple hats - designer, researcher, product manager and evangelist. And your role doesn’t end with product design, you get to own the outcome following up with customers post launch; you’ll measure impact and continuously improve the quality of Harness as experienced by customers.
