Hi there. I’m Tony and I work on design at ReadMe, and our team is looking for a new partner. We're a small team of humans (and one owl) working together to shape the developer landscape through documentation—and we’re growing! That’s where you come in.
As a designer at ReadMe, you’ll be working closely with:
- Our team of designers, Ryan, Jaclyn, and Tony.
- Our Head of Developer Experience, Marc.
- Our marketing team, led by Sarah.
We want designers at ReadMe to understand the needs of developers, and deliver solutions to their problems. That involves things like talking to customers, designing, and iterating. If that sounds vague, that’s because there’s room at ReadMe for you to flex design muscles where you excel, and to practice new things—it’s your journey, we’re just living in it.
What We Do
ReadMe helps companies build beautiful, personalized, and interactive developer hubs. If you’ve ever visited the developer docs for Intercom, Airbnb, or Notion, you’ve used ReadMe! We love what we do because it’s so much more than just docs. We’re providing tools for teams to create and manage beautiful documentation with ease.
Some things you’d do at ReadMe (in no particular order)
- Getting to understand customers and their issues by talking to them.
- Work on new pages of readme.com with a touch (loads of) whimsy.
- Build designs in Figma, or code (optional).
- Other areas you’d like to make an impact.
You’ll love this job if you are…
- Curious about developer problems—maybe you’ve worked with developer tools before.
- Putting out cool work.
- Into our aesthetic.
How you’ll grow in one month
- Learn about the world of APIs, docs, and the developer tools space.
- Add yourself to the homepage; making your first ReadMe pull request.
- Collaborate with designers on projects; with pen and paper and in Figma.
- Start to lead projects of your own.
Within a few months, you’ll…
- Design something customers love!
Within your first year, you’ll…
- Join us on a few off-sites!
- Lead ambitious projects from concept through execution.
Our benefits include…
- Unlimited PTO with a three-week minimum.
- Fully covered medical, dental, and vision insurance for you, and 50% for your dependents.
- A One Medical membership.
- A wellness stipend for therapy of up to $350 per month.
- A gym or fitness stipend of up to $150 per month.
- One-to-one donation matching of up to $1,000 per year.
- Twelve weeks of paid parental leave after the birth or adoption of a child.
- Work from home office stipend of $500.
- For fully remote employees, a stipend of $300 per month is available for a co-working space.
- Three offsite retreats per year.
At ReadMe, we’re committed to cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace. We welcome people of all backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and perspectives. We are an equal opportunity employer and a pleasant and supportive place to work. We'd love to have you come join us here!
