• You’ll work alongside UX Researchers, Product Managers, and Engineers to iterate on new features within the GitLab product.
• You'll collaborate with teams across the product to design personalized experiences that help users discover relevant content, navigate GitLab's surface area more effectively, and adopt additional functionality that meets their needs.
• You’ll communicate your design thinking and ideas through wireframes, prototypes, user flows, mockups, and high-fidelity visual designs.
• You’ll help develop hypotheses and establish clear success metrics to test new features or product changes and determine their impact on user experience and business outcomes.
• You'll help establish growth methodologies and best practices that other product teams can adopt to improve onboarding, feature adoption, and discoverability within their own areas.
• You’ll engage with our user base and the wider GitLab community to understand their pain points and work toward long-term fixes that enable them to succeed with their goals.
• You’ll undertake usability testing to validate your thinking.
• You’ll contribute to our Design System, alongside the rest of the UX team and the GitLab community as a whole.

What you'll bring:

• Must have demonstrated experience working as a Growth designer, or working in a growth-relevant area such as onboarding, user acquisition, free-to-paid conversion, feature adoption, etc.
• Familiarity with product experimentation.
• Domain knowledge or background in DevSecOps.
• Experience fostering collaboration across multiple product teams and stakeholders.
• Experience conducting your own research with a variety of methods, and strong decision making skills for when to do research.
• Strong visual design skills with the ability to balance leveraging the design system and recognizing when a unique component is needed.
