Job Description - Design Engineer

We’re a global team of over 400 people, working together to push the boundaries of open-source technology and multi-cloud solutions. Our vision is to help developers, builders, and creators bring their ideas to life with speed and simplicity, by providing a cloud data platform that makes open-source databases, search, streaming, and application infrastructure easily accessible to everyone. 


The Role:


We are seeking a versatile Design Engineer to bridge the gap between design and front-end development. This hybrid role will primarily focus on designing and implementing our marketing web experiences, including hands-on work with our CMS. Additionally, you will contribute to our core platform design system. Collaboration with engineers and participation in code reviews will be key to ensuring high code quality across our web presence.


What You'll Do:



  • Lead the full lifecycle of our marketing websites, from initial visual layout and interaction design to final front-end implementation.

  • Manage our Sanity CMS ecosystem, including content modeling, template development, and empowering stakeholders with self-service content tools.

  • Act as a core contributor to our web and product design systems, maintaining high-fidelity components, documentation, and reusable patterns.

  • Bridge the gap between design and engineering by implementing platform UI improvements and assisting with specialized front-end tasks.

  • Maintain engineering excellence by reviewing pull requests and providing constructive feedback to ensure a cohesive codebase.

  • Partner closely with content owners, designers, and developers to translate business goals into polished digital experiences.


What We're Looking For:



  • +3 years of experience in spanning both disciplines.

  • Solid experience with utilizing design tools, particularly Figma

  • Ability to translate designs into production-ready front-end code

  • Strong foundation in core front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript).

  • Experience with a modern framework (e.g., React).

  • Familiarity with Sanity or similar headless CMS platforms is considered a strong advantage. 

  • Understanding and application of web fundamentals: SEO, performance, accessibility, and responsive design.

  • Comfortable reading, reviewing, and providing clear, respectful feedback on code.

  • Ability to work autonomously while recognizing when to seek collaboration and input.



Amazing! What’s next:


If you think Aiven is the place for you and that our Values align with yours, send us your resume and we’ll get in touch!


Global Benefits:


Our global benefits are designed to help you thrive and grow, personally and professionally:



  • Participate in Aiven’s equity plan.

  • Balance work and life with our hybrid work policy.

  • Choose the equipment you need to set yourself up for success.

  • Use your Professional Development Plan budget for learning opportunities.

  • Receive holistic wellbeing support through our global Employee Assistance Program.

  • Inquire about our Global Time Off Commitment (Parental and Sick Leave, as well as Personal Time)

  • Enjoy country-specific benefits for our global cast.
