About HashiCorp

We build the Infrastructure Cloud which allows enterprises to take a unified approach to Infrastructure and Security Lifecycle Management:

Security Lifecycle Management: Protect / Inspect / Connect

• Vault provides organizations with identity-based security to automatically authenticate and authorize access to secrets and other sensitive data.
• Boundary standardizes secure remote access across dynamic environments, allowing organizations to connect users and manage access with identity-based security controls.
• Consul standardizes service networking, allowing you to discover and securely connect any service across any runtime with identity-based service networking. 

We deliver the Infrastructure Cloud through an enterprise-grade unified SaaS platform, HCP.

What’s special about HashiCorp Design?

At HashiCorp, we work on products that our users and customers love. It dramatically eases the work and overhead of deploying and managing infrastructure for teams, allowing people to focus on the uniquely valuable parts of their job, rather than tedious and repetitive tasks. 

This means customers really use our software and provide lots of feedback. Gathering and understanding this feedback requires that we collaborate across multiple disciplines, including Product, Engineering, Field, Marketing

We design and build workflows to enable our customers to secure their applications and protect sensitive information data. We focus on enabling platform teams and their customers (typically developers) to adopt and improve strong security practices. We do this with the user at heart and our ‘beauty works better’ principle in hand. We believe the design process can and should feel satisfying for stakeholders, continually improve with insights, and regularly deliver positive outcomes for our business.

We find that our principles of Kindness, Humility, and Reflection allow team members to collaborate openly and safely. We look to help and learn from each other and win together.

HashiCorp Design is looking for people who want to do the best work of their careers to join us and make all of us better.
