Senior Product Designer About this role

As a Senior Product Designer at Armory, you will own the end-to-end design of mission-critical software products used by soldiers, operators, and command staff on the modern battlefield. You will be designing the kind of software where a poorly placed button or a laggy interaction is not a UX gripe; it is a mission failure.

Responsibilities

- Own end-to-end UI/UX design across Armory upcoming product portfolio from concept and discovery through to shipped, production-grade experiences.
- Partner with the founder and product owners on 0 1 products: define the user, the job to be done, the core interaction model, and the shape of the product before a single line of code is written.
- Set the design language, component system, and interaction patterns that every current and future Armory product will inherit. There is no design system today. You will build it.
- Talk to real operators soldiers, mission commanders, technicians early and often. Turn what you learn into concrete design decisions defensible with observed user behaviour, not opinion.
- Collaborate with hardware, firmware, full-stack, and AI engineers to translate raw sensor data, RF telemetry, and autonomy signals into interfaces that a stressed operator can read in under a second.
- Prototype fast. Ship faster. Move from Figma to production-shippable specs in days, not weeks and hand engineers something they can build without a 30-round back-and-forth.

Must haves
- 68 years of hands-on product design experience shipping complex, data-dense software products defence, aviation, industrial, healthcare, fintech trading systems, ops tooling, or similar.
- Proven experience taking products from 0 1 not just iterating on someone else product. You have owned the discovery, the first design, and the shipped v1, ideally more than once.
- A portfolio that demonstrates real product outcomes, not screenshots. We want to see the problem, your process, the trade-offs you made,



and what shipped preferably with measurable impact on task time, error rate, or operator load.
- Expert command of Figma auto-layout, variables, component APIs, and building maintainable design systems that engineers can actually implement.
- Deep fluency in interaction design for real-time systems: how to represent live telemetry, how to design for degraded network conditions, how to handle alerting and escalation without alarm fatigue.
- Strong information architecture and visual hierarchy chops. You can take a screen with 40 data points and make the 3 that matter unmissable.
- Comfort with ambiguity and hardware constraints. Sometimes the target device is a rugged tablet in daylight, sometimes it is a night-vision-friendly console. You design for the constraint, not around it.
- AI-native in the right way: you use tools like Claude, v0, and Figma AI the way a designer uses a positive pen to move faster, not to outsource judgement. You can articulate exactly where the model helps and where it hallucinates. You do not ship AI-generated slop.
- First-principles thinking.

Bonus points for
- Experience designing for defence, aerospace, mission control, GIS/geospatial systems, or SCADA-style operator UIs.
- Familiarity with map-based UIs Mapbox, Leaflet, MGRS/UTM grids, custom tile layers.
- Motion and prototyping in code (React, Framer Motion, Rive) so you can hand engineers something running, not just a Figma frame.
- Experience designing for hardware form factors rugged tablets, panel-mount displays, joystick/button-driven inputs.
- Prior work in an environment with security or classification constraints, or with defence/aerospace human factors standards (MIL-STD-1472, DO-178, or equivalent).
- Industrial design sensibility not a hard requirement, but a plus given how tightly hardware and software couple in what we build.
