Apply to role > Tony Dang Tony Dang Founder About the role Infisical is looking to hire exceptional talent to join our engineering and product teams in building the open source security infrastructure stack for the AI era. We're building a generational company with a world-class engineering team. This isn't a place to coast -- but if you want to grow fast, take ownership, and solve tough problems, you'll be challenged like nowhere else. What We're Looking For We're looking for the first Design Engineer who is excited to own and elevate the user-facing experience of our rapidly growing platform. Infisical is a deeply technical product with user and developer experience at the heart of our product philosophy. We obsess over product design and have made rounds to redesign just about every part of the platform since inception. Examples of past initiatives include revamping existing features like secret syncs and secret rotation; and developing new product lines ground up such as Infisical PKI and Infisical SSH. You'll be working closely with the co-founders and engineering team to: * Translate product requirements into intuitive user experiences, focusing on complex infrastructure and security workflows. * Develop and maintain scalable, reusable UI components using React and TypeScript. * Ensure performance, accessibility, and responsiveness across all parts of the frontend stack. * Lead frontend architecture and implementation for newer product lines like Infisical PKI, Infisical SSH, and Infisical KMS. Requirements * Deep technical mastery of the JavaScript ecosystem, particularly React and TypeScript (3+ years of experience). * Exceptional attention to detail and eager to learn. * Exceptional eye for product design and UI/UX. * A bias toward action - able to make decisions with incomplete information, iterate quickly, and take calculated risks. * Familiarity with UI/UX design tools (Figma, Adobe XD). * Based in San Francisco. Bonus * Familiarity with the latest trends in frontend development. * Has some understanding of devops/developer tools. * Excellent written and oral communication skills. How You'll Grow In this role, you'll play a pivotal part in shaping Infisical's future - exploring creative product directions, owning key design decisions, building out platform interfaces, and refining existing user experiences. Overall, you'll have the opportunity to take full ownership of design engineering at Infisical and be one of the defining pieces of our team as we scale to thousands of customers over the next 18 months. Team, Values & Benefits Our team brings experience from companies like Figma, AWS, and Sentry. We operate primarily as a remote team but maintain a strong presence in San Francisco, where we have an office. We also get together in person throughout the year for off-sites, conferences, and team gatherings. We're proud to offer: * Competitive compensation, including both salary and equity options * Unlimited paid time off * Free lunch and dinner in the office * Offsites + team gatherings (last offsite was in Tokyo) * Health, Dental, & Vision plans * Generous equipment, software, & work setup stipend About Us Infisical is the open source security infrastructure platform that engineers use for secrets management, internal PKI, key management, and SSH workflow orchestration. We help developers and organizations securely manage over 1.5 billion secrets each month including application configuration, database credentials, certificates, and more. We've raised from Y Combinator, Google, and Elad Gil, and our customers include Hugging Face, Lucid, and LG. Join us on a mission to make security easier for all developers -- starting with secrets management.
