We're looking for a Head of UX - a highly skilled individual contributor with real leadership ability. You'll own the UX discipline end-to-end: the vision, the roadmap, the craft, and the standard.
This is a rare seat for someone who loves both the craft and the vision - you'll do the work and shape the direction. And the work is real: you're designing for security teams at some of the world's largest organizations, on a product that's defining a new category.
Own the UX roadmap: Define our UX vision and translate it into a clear, prioritized plan across product domains - balancing near-term sprint needs with longer-term product direction.
Be the strategic voice of UX: Work closely with PMs, and key stakeholders across R&D and Go-To-Market, to advocate for user experience at the decision-making table. You'll know when to push back and how to do it constructively.
Drive AI-native workflows: We work with cutting-edge AI tools to accelerate design and push boundaries. You'll define how AI fits into our UX practice.
Manage competing priorities intelligently: Separate signal from noise across a busy product org, and create space for the work that actually matters.
Lead end-to-end design: From user research and wireframes to prototypes and final specs - you'll own the full design process for key product areas.
Elevate the craft: Set the design standard and create a culture of quality across the team.
