Sr Product Experence Designer

Your role at Dynatrace

Bindplane is the Swiss Army knife inside Dynatrace: small, focused, and built to move fast. We're creating the first truly unified OpenTelemetry-based observability pipeline, giving enterprises a single place to collect, process, and route telemetry data across complex environments.

This role combines the speed, ownership, and creative freedom of a startup with the scale, resources, and expertise of Dynatrace. You'll benefit from mature design systems, user research capabilities, and a strong Design & Experience community while helping shape the future of observability.

We're looking for a designer who codes, a product designer with strong frontend engineering skills who thrives at the intersection of UX and development.

As a Senior Product Experience Designer, you'll own the end-to-end experience for a product domain, from user research and concept development through implementation in React. You'll transform complex technical workflows into intuitive, production-ready experiences that deliver value to customers.

 

What You'll Do

Craft & Impact

  • Own the end-to-end product experience for your domain, translating user needs and business goals into intuitive, scalable solutions.
  • Conduct research, identify customer pain points, prototype ideas, validate concepts, and ship production-ready experiences.
  • Build and maintain frontend applications using React, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, with a strong focus on usability, performance, and accessibility (WCAG).
  • Contribute to and evolve Bindplane's component library and design system while leveraging Dynatrace design assets where appropriate.
  • Map user journeys, develop personas, and deepen understanding of customer workflows within observability and telemetry pipelines.
  • Monitor product experience metrics and continuously improve user outcomes.
  • Stay informed about industry trends, emerging UX practices, and competitive solutions.

Collaboration

  • Partner closely with Product Managers, Backend Engineers, and fellow designers to deliver elegant, responsive user experiences.
  • Create clear prototypes, specifications, and reusable components that accelerate team execution.
  • Work iteratively, share work early, gather feedback often, and continuously refine solutions.
  • Engage with the Dynatrace Design & Experience community to share knowledge and contribute to design standards.
  • Participate in planning, estimation, and agile development processes.

Influence

  • Clearly communicate design and technical decisions to product, engineering, and leadership stakeholders.
  • Build visibility through impactful work within Bindplane and the broader Dynatrace R&D organization.
  • Mentor junior designers and engineers on UX best practices, frontend quality, and user-centered thinking.
  • Advocate for design excellence and help drive adoption of research insights and shared design standards.

What will help you succeed

What You Bring:

  • 5+ years of combined experience in product/UX design and frontend development, with strong proficiency in React, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
  • A portfolio of shipped product experiences. Not just designs, but working interfaces you've designed and built.
  • Solid grounding in UX principles: user research methods, journey mapping, persona development, usability testing, and translating findings into design decisions.
  • Experience with responsive design, accessibility (WCAG), and frontend performance optimization.
  • Familiarity with REST APIs, GraphQL, or other frontend-to-backend integration patterns.
  • Experience contributing to or extending design systems and component libraries.
  • Strong problem-solving, written and verbal communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Experience mentoring less-experienced engineers or designers.
  • Bonus: knowledge of observability, monitoring, OpenTelemetry, or SaaS infrastructure platforms.
