Zed is building the world’s most advanced code editor — and we believe the best product experiences come from designers who are also builders.
We’re looking for a hands-on designer who lives in the codebase, cares deeply about developer tools, and wants to help shape a product that feels intuitive, powerful, and genuinely delightful to use.
What you’ll do
- Own the end-to-end experience: from early concept to implementation
- Design clean, elegant interfaces that make developers faster and happier
- Shape the product roadmap and bring strong design vision to the table
- Pair program with engineers and contribute directly in Zed’s Rust codebase
- Extend and refine Zed’s custom design system using our in-house UI framework, GPUI
What we’re looking for
- You design in both Figma and code — and enjoy both
- You have strong visual taste and obsess over details
- You thrive in ambiguity and love working at the edge of what’s possible
- You’re open to learning Rust and building in GPUI
Bonus points
- Background in developer tools
- Experience with or curiosity about Rust
Join us to help shape the next generation of code editors. You’ll be part of a small, talented team where your contributions have a direct impact.
