The Salesforce CDX team is on a mission to create products that are easy to use and set a high standard for user experience at Salesforce. Our content design team works collaboratively, iteratively, and strategically with our design, engineering, writing, research, and product partners to bring these designs to life.
As a Staff Content Designer, you will shape experiences at scale, influence product direction, mentor new content designers, and help define the future of content design across Salesforce. You bring fluency in AI-assisted workflows and AI-ready content design, and help influence product and AI feature strategy.
Please include your portfolio in your application.
Responsibilities
You lead content design and information architecture, ensuring the narrative flow and structure of the design is logical, intuitive, and scalable across complex product ecosystems.
The experiences you create use simple language to reduce product complexity. You write the words, decide where they go, and how to deliver them inside our apps to help customers achieve their goals with Salesforce. You establish standards and reusable patterns that raise the bar for in-app communication across teams.
Hand-in-hand with research and design, you work iteratively at the start of the product development cycle. You influence product strategy early, framing problems, defining content vision, and aligning cross-functional leaders around clear, customer-centered outcomes. Along the way, you’ll gain experience gathering feedback, presenting to stakeholders, peers, and leaders about your work. You regularly present to senior leadership to drive alignment, clarity, and executive buy-in.
Independently select and apply AI tools to routine design work (prototyping, UI text, research synthesis), demonstrably improving efficiency or quality – while critically evaluating AI-generated output for accuracy, tone, and trustworthiness before publication.
Audit existing content and design patterns for AI-readiness (how well they support AI-surfaced help and conversational UX), prioritizing fixes by impact.
Articulate where human judgment on customer behavior and design quality adds value AI can’t replicate – and influence how AI-assisted features are designed, not just documented.
Act as a multiplier by mentoring designers and sharing AI best practices across the team.
