ABOUT OUTTAKE Outtake exists to empower and facilitate trust for a digital-first world. Today, impersonation, fraud, AI-driven scams, and identity abuse spread faster than any security team can respond to. So we built something different: an agentic AI platform that proactively detects, monitors, and takes down impersonators, automating protection in hours, not weeks. Built by ex-Palantir, ex-CTO/founders, and ex-Notion engineers, Outtake is designed for clarity, autonomy, and velocity. Our goal is ambitious: become the trust layer of the modern internet. And we intend to do it with a lean, dense, exceptionally talented team. Outtake is backed by top-tier investors and operators who believe in our mission and our model. With strong financial footing and a long runway, we prioritize creating an environment where people can do the best work of their careers. THE ROLE This is a senior product design role. You will join as Outtake's third product designer, ramping quickly to independently own design for a product area, embedded in a product team, while also leading horizontal initiatives. Outtake is a decentralized, high-ownership org without a traditional PM role. You will work with product engineers and product deployment leads to identify opportunities, challenge assumptions, and decide what's worth building — shaping product direction, not just executing against it. This is a role for solving novel UX challenges. You will design how users manage fleets of autonomous agents, decide when to intervene, and investigate threats across layers of connected data — owning the experience end-to-end, from workflows and information architecture to the interactions and visual details that make it clear and usable. WHAT YOU’LL DO * Work with product engineers and product deployment leads to identify opportunities, challenge assumptions, and decide what's worth building. * Design how users manage fleets of autonomous agents, decide when to intervene, and investigate threats across layers of connected data. * Own the experience from workflows and information architecture to the interactions and visual details that make it clear and usable. * Turn open questions into well-backed user insights and concrete design options and prototypes that align your team. * Find simpler ways to solve problems, make deliberate tradeoffs, and work closely with engineers to ship and improve the product. * Build direct relationships with customers, driving design partnerships and establishing regular channels for feedback. * Run research, test ideas, and gather the qualitative and quantitative evidence needed to make decisions and assess what you ship. * Create tools and practices that help designers, engineers, and product managers move faster and consistently ship well-designed products, including evolving our design system and expanding the use of AI in how we explore, prototype, and build. * As the design team grows, we expect this role to take on broader ownership over design culture and horizontal design initiatives at Outtake. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR * 5+ years of product design experience, ideally at early-stage or high-growth companies where you've had to own outcomes end-to-end. * Comfort designing technically complex products, with the ability to get deep into a domain, solve unfamiliar UX problems, and make layered information clear and useful. * A deeply product-minded, user-driven (not user-led) approach, with genuine excitement to drive product strategy alongside Product Deployment and Product Engineering. * Resourcefulness and speed, with the judgment to know when to decide carefully and when to ship and iterate. * Low ego, with the ability to give and receive feedback openly without getting precious about your work. * Comfort working collaboratively while also navigating ambiguity and owning your work fully without hand-holding. * Excellent craft across interaction, visual, and motion design. * Nice to have: experience designing for AI, automation, or agent-based systems. * Nice to have: experience as an early design hire who helped shape design culture from the ground up. * Nice to have: active use of AI tools in your design workflow, with ongoing experimentation in how to leverage them. * Nice to have: experience creating and maintaining a design system. * Nice to have: a background in cybersecurity, trust & safety, or risk-related products. LIFE AT OUTTAKE * Office: For those in NY, we are an in-person team (5 days a week, with flexibility as needed) working out of a stunning waterfront office in Brooklyn. Collaboration, speed, and clarity matter. * Health: 100% company-paid medical, dental, and vision for employees. * Time Away: Flexible PTO. We trust adults to manage energy, not clock time. * Culture & Team: Annual company retreats and regular in-person events. Outtake is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive team.
