About Us
Cloudsmith is an end-to-end software supply chain product. Cloudsmith allows enterprises who make software to control, secure, and distribute software assets to teams, pipelines and customers. We are a rapidly-growing venture-backed business, scaling to get ahead of our competitors.
Design at Cloudsmith
Cloudsmith’s customers are typically large enterprises who are looking to control, secure, and distribute their software. How Cloudsmith is perceived by those companies is critical. The quality and consistency of our brand, user experiences, communication materials, events, swag - everything; it all adds up to tell customers that we can be trusted, and that we’re the best partner for the long term. Design at Cloudsmith is playing an increasingly important role in how we grow.
We’re building two new and distinct design teams inside Cloudsmith; one focused on our web applications and digital products, the other on our brand, experiences, communications and marketing solutions.
