About JetBrains Air

JetBrains has been building developer tools since 2000 — including IntelliJ IDEA, Kotlin, TeamCity, and more, now trusted by 15M+ developers at 287K companies worldwide. The company is 100% private, profitable, and driven by a single thesis: great tools make developers better.

Air is what JetBrains is building next: an agentic development environment where multiple AI agents run tasks in parallel while the developer stays in control. It’s a genuinely new kind of developer tool — spanning a native desktop app, an expanding web experience, and cloud-based automations. It’s the next frontier after IDEs: not just helping developers write code, but helping them orchestrate it.

The Air design team is two people now — and you’d be the third. Your primary focus will be the web surface and the automations sub-team: an emerging part of the product that is ready for dedicated design ownership, with a real opportunity to raise the bar and shape the experience from the ground up.

What you’ll be working on

Design the web interface for Air: team management, automation setup, and a results overview
Shape the design process for the automations sub-team, working directly with developers to establish review and handoff practices
Take features from ambiguous briefs to shipped interfaces
Contribute to the shared design system: add and maintain components in Figma as the product grows
Vibe-code and use AI for prototyping when it helps move ideas forward faster
Participate in cross-team demos and quarterly planning, bringing a design perspective to where Air should go next

What you need

5+ years of product design experience, with great examples of delivering results that impact the business.
Ownership instinct. You see features through from design to production. Delivery is part of your definition of done.
Excellent cross-team project delivery. You can work with limited context, clarify what matters, define the scope, and move projects forward across teams without needing constant hand-holding.
Active AI user. You use AI tools in your design workflow. You’ve experimented with building or prototyping with Cursor, Claude, or similar. This market moves weekly; you should too.
Solid Figma skills. Proficient with components, tokens/variables, and design systems — you can navigate an existing UI kit, understand how it works, and contribute new components as the product grows.

Nice to have:

Experience with developer-focused products or technical tooling (IDEs, dashboards, data tools)
Experience with vibe-coding, design engineering, or code-level prototypes
Familiarity with agentic or AI-native interface patterns — trust signals, human-in-the-loop, error handling at scale

What you get

Rare product scope. Work on a product that could define the next generation of developer tooling — small team, direct impact, decisions that ship fast.
JetBrains’ culture. Engineering-first, quality-focused, 100% private. No VC pressure, no artificial growth targets.
Competitive compensation and benefits — location-dependent, with a full breakdown available on request.
