About the Role
We're looking for a Design Engineer who lives at the intersection of design and code. You will prototype, build, and polish the experiences that make CodeRabbit feel like a trusted teammate rather than noise — across IDEs, Git platforms, the CLI, and the web. This role owns the last mile of execution, from pixels and motion to copy and latency, ensuring developers trust AI-generated suggestions. It is perfect for someone who thinks like a designer but builds like an engineer — or vice versa. This is a high-ownership role working directly with design, engineering, and AI teams to define what's possible and then ship it, fast.
Responsibilities
- Build production-quality UI, shipping polished components and interactions that make complex code analysis feel effortless and earn developers' trust in AI-generated suggestions.
- Prototype rapidly, turning concepts for emerging AI experiences into working prototypes in hours, not days, to validate ideas before full implementation.
- Bridge design and engineering by translating high-fidelity designs into pixel-perfect code and pushing design forward through technical innovation.
- Own implementation quality, setting and holding the bar for UI execution across the product, including smooth interactions, thoughtful motion, and micro-interactions.
- Build the design system in code, creating and maintaining reusable, well-engineered components spanning Web, IDE extensions, Git platforms, and CLI surfaces.
- Make complex data legible by implementing clear, performant visualizations for code quality metrics, dependency graphs, and AI-generated insights.
- Stay close to the model by building for where AI capabilities are heading and helping define interaction paradigms native to AI and developer tools.
Requirements
- Equally fluent in Figma and your editor, moving between design tools and code without friction.
- Strong front-end engineering skills in TypeScript, React, CSS, and animation, with an instinct for building reusable, maintainable UI systems.
- An obsession with craft, with an eye for design details and a proven ability to ship polished products.
- Ability to ship fast and learn in the open, prioritizing user feedback over perfection.
- AI-native approach to work, using AI tools to extend capabilities and seeing AI as a creative partner.
- Excitement for rethinking the basics and inventing patterns native to AI and developer tools.
- 2–5+ years of experience in design engineering, front-end, or product design roles, with a portfolio or shipped work demonstrating both engineering rigor and visual craft.
- Proven track record of shipping complex technical products end-to-end in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
- Experience building or contributing to design systems and component libraries across multiple platforms.
- Strong command of modern front-end tooling (TypeScript, React, CSS, animation libraries) and modern design tools (e.g., Figma).
- Excellent collaboration and communication skills across cross-functional teams.
- Experience at developer-focused companies (e.g., GitHub, Postman, Hasura) or building developer tools.
- A background in or strong understanding of software development and Git workflows.
- Experience with IDE extensions (VS Code, JetBrains), Electron, or building cross-platform apps.
- Experience designing or building AI/ML-powered interfaces, or motion design and micro-interactions.
- Contributions to open-source projects or design systems.

About the Company
- CodeRabbit is the leading AI code review platform, trusted by more than 17,000 customers and 150,000 open-source projects, conducting over 2 million code reviews each week.
- We build the symbiotic partnership between developers and AI that makes shipping fast software safe again, reviewing every pull request, IDE change, and CLI commit so teams can move quickly without breaking things.
- We are a fast-moving, well-funded company, fresh off a $143M Series C at a $1.5B valuation — building Agentic Change Management, the control layer for software changes created by humans and agents.
- As AI writes more of the world's code, the bottleneck moves from implementation to judgment and helping human judgment scale is exactly the problem we exist to solve.
