Our product
Graphite is modern code review for fast-moving teams - we help engineers write and review smaller pull requests, stay unblocked, and ship faster.
Anyone can start using Graphite individually without needing their coworkers to change tools - we seamlessly sync code changes and reviews. We started Graphite because we missed internal code review tools like Phabricator (at Facebook) and Critique (Google) that help engineers create, approve, and ship small, incremental changes, and long-term we’re passionate about creating products & workflows that help fast-moving eng teams achieve more.
Our company
We’re a small-but-mighty team of 22 based in Manhattan in the heart of Soho, with a passionate and rapidly growing group of users at top engineering orgs like Datadog, Asana, Brex, Ramp, and Snowflake.
Our $20m Series A (featured in TechCrunch) was led by Peter Levine at Andreessen Horowitz (who led GitHub's Series A), with participation from folks like Tom Preston-Werner (founder of GitHub), Sam Lambert (Planetscale CEO & ex-GitHub CTO), Sebastian Markbåge (creator of React), and many more.
Our culture centers on putting people first, applying science and craft, practicing disciplined ambition, and giving ownership - both literally (with equity) and in the responsibility and scope you’ll have as a part of our early team. Outside of work you’ll find us brewing espresso drinks, producing music, or practicing yoga. We can’t wait to see what you’ll add to the mix!
About the Role

As our first design engineer, you’ll help shape the role and define the future of design engineering at Graphite. Above all, this role is best suited for someone excited about both exploring beautiful experiences and technologies to bring them to life.
Rethinking the way fast-moving eng teams write and review code every day is no small feat, and we believe that the best solutions are built when the most talented, ambitious, and dedicated people from diverse backgrounds come together.

Own the visual experience for our marketing efforts across surfaces, from concept to implementation
Iterate quickly with marketing to define and deliver new campaigns
Explore creative improvements that uplevel the Graphite product experience, and directly implement these alongside frontend engineers
Champion and evolve the design culture and processes at Graphite
What we’re looking for
