Product Designer (Design + Code)

ABOUT US Cracken is an applied AI lab building the world's first full kill chain proactive cyber platform. Built by cyber warfare-experienced operators and AI researchers, Cracken keeps digital infrastructure resilient so businesses and societies can operate.

THE ROLE We're looking for a Product Designer who also builds, someone who can design in Figma and ship in code, to own the end-to-end UI/UX of our AI-native cybersecurity platform. You will shape how security teams interact with an AI agent in high-stakes, real-world workflows. That means clean, precise interfaces where every interaction is intentional and every pixel earns its place. This is a hands-on role. You design it, you build it.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own product design from research and concept through to production-ready code across the core product

• Build and maintain the product design system, in Figma and in React + TypeScript + TailwindCSS

• Translate complex security workflows into interfaces that feel intuitive to practitioners

• Collaborate directly with backend engineers and security researchers to ship features fast

• Define interaction patterns for human-in-the-loop AI experiences

• Lead design reviews and contribute to component architecture and frontend standards

MUST-HAVE EXPERIENCE

• 4+ years designing and building user-facing products as a product designer, design engineer, or equivalent hybrid role

• Strong proficiency in ReactJS, TypeScript, and TailwindCSS

• Ability to own design decisions end-to-end without a dedicated design team

• Deep understanding of usability, accessibility, and responsive design

• Experience working directly with engineers and PMs in fast-moving environments

TECHNICAL STACK Experience with tools such as:

• Figma (design systems, prototyping, and developer handoff)

• ReactJS + TypeScript + TailwindCSS

• WebSockets, Docker

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience designing for developer tools, data-intensive dashboards, or AI interfaces

• Familiarity with human-in-the-loop workflows, LLM agent UX, or security tools

• Contributions to open-source UI frameworks or design systems

• Background in early-stage startups or cross-functional product squads

• Interest in cybersecurity and/or AI-enabled tooling. Curiosity is enough; deep expertise is not required

WHY CRACKEN?

• Real-world impact: Our technology is validated in high-stakes, real-world environments and grounded in hands-on internal research.

• Team with a mission: A Ukrainian-heavy international team of PhDs, professors, and senior industry engineers, driven by intrinsic motivation and real-world adversity.

• Adaptive roles: We shape roles around exceptional talent. Your ownership and drive will define your path.

• Perfect timing: Operating at the intersection of AI, cybersecurity, and autonomous systems, Cracken is uniquely positioned to build resilient security products.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Ownership over a core product surface

• Direct collaboration with founders and senior engineers

• High autonomy and real influence on product direction

• Fully remote and flexible work setup

• Competitive compensation
