  • Blacksmith Software Inc.
  • New York, NY

Job Description

Overview

At Blacksmith, we provide cloud infra to help companies run their CI (GitHub Actions) substantially faster and cheaper. Our mission is to build a CI cloud. Our bet is that CI, as a class of workloads, is ready to be unbundled from the hyperscaler clouds (AWS/GCP/Azure). This is a bold statement, and we have an ambitious roadmap ahead.

Some things we're proud of

  • We orchestrate millions of VMs for CI jobs each month over our own fleet of bare metal hardware.
  • We power CI for 900+ fast-growing startups like Supabase, UserTesting, Ashby, Slope, AtoB, Pylon, and Finch.
  • Founders: Aditya Maru and Aayush Shah were early systems engineers at Cockroach Labs. Aditya (JP) Jayaprakash worked on search infra and was later a founding member of the ads team at Faire.
  • We went through Y Combinator's W24 batch and raised $13.5M Series A from Google Ventures.

You are a good fit if you

  • Have strong product instincts and can translate complex technical concepts into clean, intuitive, and developer-friendly interfaces.
  • Live and breathe Figma. You are excited to own the end-to-end design process; from early explorations and wireframes to polished, production-ready UIs.
  • Full stack design skills (UX, design systems, UI, prototyping) and a strong sense for visual design for UI (layouts, components, design systems, polish, etc).
  • Are comfortable collaborating directly with engineers, growth, and founders to shape product direction and company brand.
  • Are proactive and have a bias for action. You are on top of the most pressing problems on your own.
  • Have a strong visual eye and care deeply about craft typography, spacing, hierarchy, and polish matter to you.
  • Enjoy working in person 5 days a week in NYC or SF.
  • Thrive in ambiguity and fast-paced environments. You dont wait for perfect specs you ask questions, make quick decisions, and iterate rapidly.
  • Have 3+ years of experience designing SaaS or developer tools.

Bonus

  • Youve worked at an early-stage startup or were the first designer on a team.
  • You have experience building or maintaining design systems.
  • Youve dabbled in side projects or startups of your own.

Compensation and benefits

  • Compensation: We want to attract the best people to come work with us and offer competitive compensation packages.
  • Benefits: We offer premium health, dental, and vision coverage and 16 weeks paid parental leave for new parents.
  • Time off: We offer unlimited PTO and encourage folks to take their birthday off!
  • Foodie Benefits: You and a +1 get a Michelin star dinner on us for your birthday.
  • 401(k): Helps you save for retirement.
