Devops & QA Lead

About Naya

We’ve designed a place where product teams can bring all your digital sh

• together (like Miro, Google docs, Figma files, PPTs, 3D, videos, images, PDFs, and 100’s more – you name it). With their stuff in one place, teams at Google, MillerKnoll, and Adidas are already saving time, reducing costs, and creating better products by using our platform, Naya.

Founded in 2019 out of Harvard’s Design School, Naya seeks to enable more thoughtful ideas to come to life.

Storytelling and marketing is a core function at Naya — the product enables storytelling and the team works closely with communities and users to tell better stories. As a marketing coordinator, you will get to share all of these features, tell user stories, build our community, plan launches, and much more.
