With AI-powered automation, self-serve capabilities, and additional tailored expert advice, we offer our customers a seamless security and compliance experience to stay ahead of the rapidly evolving security landscape and challenges like the surge in cyber-attacks.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

As AI accelerates delivery, this role is less about shipping faster and more about deciding what is worth shipping. You will be expected to use strong judgment, shape scope, prioritize impact and design solutions that drive meaningful customer and business outcomes.

Product & AI Experience Delivery

• Act as the go-to person for user needs owning customer understanding end-to-end from persona maintenance to in-depth research, competitive analysis, and data-driven product decisions

• Own end-to-end product design delivery, from persona definition and early discovery through UX flows to high-fidelity UI and handoff-ready assets, designing AI-first, agent-enabled experiences that fundamentally change how users operate

Systems, Craft and Design Quality

• Contribute to and evolve the design system, improving consistency, extending patterns, and supporting the transformation into a unified Integrated Management System

• Prototype early and drive discovery and validation, using modern design and AI tooling, user research, and feedback loops to continuously improve design decisions and de-risk product direction

Communication, Documentation and Influence

• Communicate the why behind design decisions, through clear documentation, structured UX rationale, and handoff-ready assets in Figma, and transparent tracking of work in JIRA

• Collaborate closely with Product Managers on problem framing and with Engineering on feasibility, presenting and demoing work confidently (live and async) while helping raise the craft bar through strong practices and a design culture that others want to be part of.

WHAT YOU'LL GET IN RETURN

• The freedom, trust, and tools to do what you love and make an impact in a purpose-driven company, committed to doing genuine good in the digital world.

• Enjoy a high degree of flexibility with tailored working hours, choice of work location, and benefits that support your lifestyle, health, and family needs.

• Join a secure, future-focused role in a dynamic scale-up positioned to make a major impact in the rapidly expanding Security & Compliance market.

• Grow along expert or leadership paths with support from employee accelerator programs, bi-annual feedback cycles, and a personal training budget.

• Work in an environment that values autonomy, rapid decision-making, a flat hierarchy, and collaborative, eye-level communication to keep things moving forward.

• A platform in transformation, where the decisions you make now will define how we look and feel for years.

• Direct partnership with Product, Marketing, Customers and In-House Experts and AI capability teams on work that matters to real customers.

THE QUALITIES YOU'LL NEED FOR A SUCCESSFUL CAREER AT DATAGUARD

• 3+ years in product design (SaaS and/or B2B), with a portfolio showcasing strong UX thinking and high-quality visual craft

• Experience designing complex, multi-step workflows, defining information architecture and interaction models beyond individual screens

• Proven ability to reduce complexity in B2B environments and take ownership of ambiguous problem spaces, not just feature execution

• Strong product thinking, actively challenging problem framing and scope to ensure meaningful outcomes not just feature delivery

• Confident collaboration with Product, Engineering and customers, knowing when to push, adapt or move to execution

• Experience or strong interest in AI-driven product design, translating emerging capabilities into real user value

• Advanced Figma skills and experience with modern design tooling, documentation practices and design operations

• We value a good sense of humor and the humility of a beginner while having the appetite to grow: Taking on scope, systems of work, while intentionally developing further personal and Team competencies
