Product Design Lead

Daylight is a security services company delivering Managed Agentic Security Services (MASS), including MDR, threat hunting, security data lake, and more, through a fundamentally different architecture than traditional security services providers.

Daylight's architecture combines an agentic platform that runs the full cycle from detection to response with security experts from IR and threat hunting backgrounds. The platform collects identity and business context across systems to investigate alerts and continuously learns your environment. Security experts validate decisions, feed insights into the platform, optimize detections, and take over in case of an incident.

The result: security teams move from firefighting to strategic work.

We’re looking for our first Product Design Lead to help shape the future of Daylight’s product experience.

This is a rare opportunity to build the design foundation of a complex, AI-driven security platform from the ground up. You’ll work closely with Product and Engineering, influence product direction at the earliest stages, and own the user experience end-to-end.

We’re looking for someone who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys simplifying complex workflows, and wants to have a meaningful impact in a fast-moving startup environment.

Responsibilities:

• Own and shape the product design function at Daylight.
• Turn complex security and AI-driven workflows into intuitive user experiences.
• Partner closely with Product and Engineering to influence product direction and strategy.
• Build and evolve our design system, patterns, and product UX foundations.
• Create wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs across the full product lifecycle.
• Conduct user research and gather product feedback to deeply understand user needs
• Help establish a strong product and design culture across the company.

 

Requirements:

• 4+ years of experience in product design or UI/UX design, preferably in the tech or security industry.
• A strong portfolio that demonstrates product thinking, interaction design, and visual craft
• Comfortable owning the entire design process in a startup or small-team environment
• Able to move between high-level strategy and pixel-perfect execution
• Collaborative, curious, and able to communicate design decisions clearly
