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
