Who We Are

Great design is at the center of every customer decision. The VMware UX Design Team crafts and delivers useful, accessible products and services that meaningfully solve customer problems, manifest "One VMware" in execution and user experience, and accelerate VMware's SaaS transformation.
VMware Design works across VMware businesses to define, evaluate, and optimize the user and customer experience of VMware’s products and services.

VMware UX capabilities bridge strategy and implementation, spanning UX Research, Product Design, Visual Design, Accessibility and UI Engineering. The VMware Design team consists of nearly 250 UXers who work across VMware’s core products and services from within a centralized team. 80% of the design team is aligned to products across our internal businesses, while 20% supports all product teams through platform offerings, process improvement and standardization initiatives- including accessibility, UX research, shared documentation, team engagements and SIGs, and our Clarity Design System.
