Invest in your career with a Madrona-funded company.

We’re building a modern, AI-enabled helpdesk, and the problems we tackle require people who think across systems. Design and engineering choices are part of one workflow.

As a design engineer here, you will not just polish interfaces. You will solve complex product problems, raise the quality of the team’s work, and shape the design system behind everything we ship. If you like exploring ideas visually and grounding them in real interfaces, you will thrive here.

About the Role

As a Senior Design Engineer at Ravenna, you will work at the intersection of interaction design, systems thinking, and front-end engineering. You will move between designing flows, prototyping with real data, implementing components, and improving internal tools, tokens, and documentation.

Your work will shape how users experience AI-powered internal support. You will be a design partner, a systems thinker, a high-impact engineer, and a steady advocate for product quality.

We value principled UX, strong AI capabilities, and simplicity. If that resonates, you will be at home here.
