The Role

We’re looking for a Product Designer to join our small but mighty design team. You’ll work closely with our UX Lead and other designers across both our enterprise AI Security Suite and Gray Swan Arena. From collaborating with ML, Dev, and GTM teams to translating complex technical workflows into clear, trustworthy, and refined product experiences, you’ll help shape how AI systems are tested, monitored, and secured.

This is a high ownership role. We care deeply about craft, but just as much about initiative. We’re looking for someone who can take a problem, run with it, collaborate cross functionally, and push the work to a high standard without waiting to be told what to do.

Applicants must be based in Pittsburgh or willing to relocate.

What You’ll Do

• Design and improve Gray Swan’s UI across web and mobile platforms
• Own your work from end-to-end, from early concept sketches to production-ready specs
• Translate complex technical workflows into clear, intuitive user experiences
• Build and maintain UI components, patterns, and visual standards in our design system
• Collaborate with product, engineering, ML research, and GTM teams on cross-functional work
