Honeycomb defined the concept of observability and is raising expectations of what developer tools can do! Honeycomb is the observability platform that enables engineering teams to find and solve problems they couldn't before. It enables engineers to answer novel questions about their ever-evolving cloud applications, so they can deploy confidently, resolve incidents faster and focus on high-value work that drives innovation. We’re working with well known companies like HelloFresh, Slack, LaunchDarkly, and Vanguard and more across a range of industries. This is an exciting time in our trajectory, we’ve closed Series D funding, scaled past the 150-person mark, and were named to Forbes’ America’s Best Startups of 2022!

In this Director of Design role, you’ll be leading a team in evolving a loved product to a broader audience, which means you'll be working across disciplines to understand the market, connect design to the overall needs of the business, and chart a course to maximize the impact of our designers' creativity. You'll be the champion for design thinking and investment at Honeycomb, evangelizing a vision for how world-class design can elevate our brand perception and user experience alike. The contributions of your team will be key in helping us to empower engineers to launch investigations and give them more confidence in how their software behaves in production.

You are a leader that can catalyze positive change. Satya Nadella’s three leadership expectations should resonate strongly: you bring clarity to those you work with, generate energy, not only on your own teams but across the company, and finally, you find a way to deliver success, to make things happen.

We come for the impact, and stay for the culture! We’re a talented, opinionated, passionate, fiercely inclusive, and responsible group of bees. We have conviction and we strive to live our values every day. We want our people to do what they truly love amongst a team of highly talented (but humble) peers.

We are a remote-first company, which means we believe it is not where you sit, but how you deliver that matters most. We invest in our people and care about how you orient to our culture and processes. At the same time we imbue a lot of trust, autonomy, and accountability from Day 1. #LI-Remote

We're building a diverse and inclusive workplace where we learn from each other, and welcome nontraditional candidates, and people of all backgrounds, experiences, abilities and perspectives. You don't need to be a millennial to join us, all gens are welcome! Further, we (of course) follow federal and state disability laws and are happy to provide reasonable accommodations during the application phase, interview process, and employment.
