Senior Product Designer

Tessian

We believe technology should secure the digital interactions of employees without compromising user experience or productivity. That’s why we’re building the world’s first Human Layer Security platform. 

We’re a team of mathematicians, data scientists & engineers building breakthrough machine learning and natural language technologies to analyse, understand & protect enterprise email networks.

Tessian is backed by leading technology investors Sequoia Capital and Accel who have helped build many industry defining companies including Stripe, Spotify, Crowdstrike and Docker.

We'd love to hear from you.

Product at Tessian

Having found exceptional product/market fit for our category-defining Human Layer Security software platform, we’re in the midst of transitioning from 'start-up' to ‘scale-up’, and are looking for a Senior Product Designer to join our team. 

Product Designers at Tessian work closely with our autonomous, cross-functional engineering teams to deliver amazing experiences for our customers. As part of the Product team, Product Designers work flexibly and are able to utilise UX, UI and Product skill sets. 

We’re not a typical cybersecurity company, and we need someone who can communicate this through impactful UI and UX design. Our main design challenge is creating analytics dashboards and visualisations to communicate trends detected by Tessian in massive email datasets. You might also work on rethinking complex workflows, or designing friendly interactions for our end-users. 

The product team currently consists of product managers, associate product managers, and one product designer. The new senior product designer will have significant impact in defining the design process at Tessian. We value collaborative design, and use Figma for UX/UI work.

We’re looking for someone hands-on that values the impact design can have over perfection. We’re open to a variety of experience levels and would love to meet someone with startup or b2b SaaS experience.

We'd like to meet someone who:

• Has 3+ years experience working and collaborating with engineering teams in dynamic environments
• Can showcase an outstanding portfolio including a strong foundation in both visual and interaction design
• Has experience closely partnering with product managers to develop the strategy and rationale for features 
• Is comfortable working on complex, open ended design challenges
• Prefers building new products over optimising old ones
• Bonus - experience designing b2b web portals
• Bonus - experience designing analytics or visualisation tools

Why we think you'll love it here
