    Job description

    We find and fix every vulnerability in our customers' applications. When a new AI model is released, we run it against their applications before attackers do, and close what it finds.

    About Wakefield

    Wakefield is an applied research lab working on AI-native security services. We build security agents and publish how they work. Our methods, benchmark and raw data are public so anyone can check them.

    • Source code optional: blackbox agents sign in as every role and test the running app. Whitebox agents read the code on every pull request.

    • If Wakefield can't prove it, the customer never sees it: agents replay each finding in a real browser and record it. Then Wakefield writes the fix, ready to open as a pull request, and retests it. We have SLAs for zero false positives.

    • One service that replaces DAST, SAST, SCA, SBOM, and the tests companies run in-house or buy in.

    The role

    Wakefield's agents do work a person used to do: test an application, prove a bug, write the fix. The people who rely on them range from security engineers to a CEO who has never heard of an IDOR. As our first designer, you'll own how all of it looks and feels: the console, the design system, the reports, and the Wakefield brand and website.

    What you'll work on

    • Proof that anyone can follow: a recording, the requests and a fix, in one view.

    • Following agents at work: what they're doing, why, and what they'll try next.

    • Reports a CISO hands to a board, and briefings for leaders who aren't technical.

    • Trust and control: scope, approvals, and stopping a scan at once.

    • One design system across the console and the website.

    • The Wakefield brand: identity, website and motion.

    Requirements

    • A strong portfolio of shipped product work with precise visual and interaction craft

    • Time at a fast-growing startup

    • You've built design from scratch: a design system, a brand, or both

    • You've shipped with engineers to real users and kept iterating after launch

    • You make complex, dense systems simple without hiding what matters

    • You use AI tools every day to prototype and ship, and still own every detail

    • You design for fun because you genuinely care about the craft

    Nice to have

    • You code: you prototype or ship production UI and design system code yourself

    • You've designed security, developer or data-heavy products
