We're hiring a Senior Product Designer II to lead significant, high-impact design initiatives — someone who can navigate ambiguity with confidence, bring rigor and data-informed thinking to complex problems, and raise the bar for the design org around them. In this role, you'll own meaningful chunks of our product strategy, driving design end-to-end across complicated, often loosely-defined projects. You'll be a go-to resource for your teammates, proactively mentoring and improving quality beyond your own work — while staying close to customers, operators, and the full business to keep your decisions well-grounded. - Lead end-to-end design on significant, high-impact projects, from discovery through production and iteration, often with minimal definition and little precedent to work from. - Bring a data-informed mindset to every aspect of your work — articulating when data is incomplete or biased, keeping the user at the center of every solution, and holding a high bar for quality and craft before sharing your work. - Contribute to prioritization, strategy, and process — breaking big ambiguous problems into actionable steps and building clarity for your team and cross-functional partners. - Use business goals, data, patterns, and industry context to arrive at quick, iterative solutions — avoiding getting stuck in the abstract. - Proactively identify opportunities to inform, influence, and collaborate across the design org, creating workflow efficiencies and sharing learnings with teammates. - Serve as a helpful mentor for teammates at earlier career levels, improving craft, communication, and design quality beyond your own area. Your experience - 6+ years of product design experience, with a track record of designing and shipping products that customers love. - Proven ability to lead complicated, ambiguous projects with little direction, driving them forward and creating clarity for those around you. - Strong data-informed thinking. You roll business goals, research, technical constraints, and user needs into well-crafted solutions (mocks, prototypes, flows), and you iterate fast. - Experience mentoring or coaching peers, and a track record of improving quality beyond your own work. - Strong communicator who manages stakeholders well — you understand the nuance of upward and cross-functional communication and proactively keep the right people informed. - Deep visual and interaction design craft, with attention to detail across flows, states, and edge cases. - Humble, collaborative, and curious. Energized by a complex, evolving product and motivated to keep learning and help others grow. - Bonus if you have experience designing LLM or AI-powered products, or working on enterprise or operations tooling.

Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including geographic location as well as candidate experience and expertise, and may vary from the amounts listed above.

This role is on our Cloud Security squad on our Infra & Platform team and is an engineering forward role. You’ll be building systems, tools, and automation that make secure development the default. You’ll bring a modern, opinionated perspective on how application security should work in a cloud-native, AI-enabled environment.

What We're Looking For - A builder mindset and experience working on large codebases and safely shipping code to production. - Strong understanding of common application security risks (OWASP Top 10) and how to mitigate them. - A pragmatic and empathetic approach to security controls that favors guidance over blocking and influence over mandates. - Strong communication skills and the ability to communicate security risks and tradeoffs to both technical and non-technical audiences. - Experience with threat modeling and risk assessments. - Familiarity with securing and running software in a major cloud provider. - Curiosity and a desire to use AI and agenting tooling to scale your and the security team’s impact. Nice to Haves - Experience working in Google Cloud (GCP) - Experience writing production code in the most popular languages at Handshake: Ruby, Typescript and Go. - Experience building agentic systems to solve security problems. Why This Role You’ll have real ownership over how application security is built and scaled at Handshake. This role sits at the intersection of security, developer experience, and AI, with the opportunity to define how all three come together. As part of a fast paced and growing business you will regularly get to work on new and interesting problems. If you care about building systems (not just processes), enjoy working closely with engineers, and want to rethink what modern application security looks like, we’d love to hear from you.
