Sr. UX Designer, Security - Cribl

Join the company that’s building the telemetry infrastructure for the AI era. At Cribl, we partner with IT and Security teams at many of the world’s biggest enterprises, including half of the Fortune 100, to bridge the gap between AI ambition and infrastructure reality. As the AI Platform for Telemetry, we give customers the choice, control, and flexibility to manage and analyze telemetry for both humans and agents, so they can build what’s next.

We’re one of the fastest-growing private companies and a leading player in a massive, fast-moving market. With a global workforce, we’re remote-first and grounded in a simple idea: software is a people business. Cribl is the place where curious, collaborative people can do their best work, grow fast, and bring their full selves to the herd.

Why You’ll Love This Role

We are looking for a Senior Product Designer to help define and deliver the Cribl security product experience. You will design for security practitioners across detection, alerting, investigation, triage, search, threat coverage, telemetry, and AI-assisted workflows.

This role requires a genuine security background and the ability to turn complex SOC workflows into clear, trustworthy experiences. You will partner with Product, Engineering, UX Research, and other designers to create a cohesive experience that works seamlessly with our other products across the entire Cribl platform.

What You'll Do

• Lead end-to-end design from problem framing and research through interaction design, prototyping, validation, and implementation.
• Design workflows for detection creation and management, alert review, investigation, triage, search pivots, threat coverage, normalization, and enrichment.
• Apply security judgment to evidence, provenance, confidence, severity, permissions, auditability, destructive actions, and operational risk.
• Design AI-assisted and agentic experiences that make intent, context, sources, capabilities, uncertainty, and user approval clear.
• Use Cribl’s design system and contribute reusable components, patterns, guidance, and interaction models when the work has broader value.
• Work expertly in Figma for exploration, prototyping, documentation, collaboration, and handoff, including libraries, variables, components, variants, and tokens.
• Partner with engineers, PMs, and designers through ideation and development to support feasibility, accessibility, resilience, and high-fidelity implementation.
• Share work early and often through critiques and working sessions, giving and receiving specific, constructive feedback.
• Use research and product evidence to prioritize opportunities, evaluate concepts, and improve shipped workflows.
• Communicate design rationale, tradeoffs, and recommendations clearly to technical and non-technical partners.
• Coordinate across multiple time zones in our remote-first environment, occasionally accommodating duties outside standard working hours.

What You'll Bring

Required

• 5+ years of experience designing complex B2B software, enterprise platforms, or products for technical users.
• A background in security, such as security product design, security operations, threat detection, incident response, threat hunting, detection engineering, SOC workflows, SIEM, EDR, SOAR, or a related discipline.
• Deep understanding of security practitioners’ daily realities, including noisy signals, incomplete evidence, time pressure, and high-consequence decisions.
• Strong product thinking and interaction-design skills, with the ability to make complex technical workflows simple without oversimplifying them.
• Experience designing AI-assisted, agentic, conversational, or other emerging interaction models.
• Expert Figma skills, including advanced prototyping and design documentation.
• Demonstrated expertise working in and contributing to design systems, knowing when to use existing patterns versus extending them thoughtfully.
• Understanding of AI tools and AI UX interaction models to design experiences where AI assists, recommends, generates, investigates, or acts while preserving user trust and control.
• Proven track record collaborating closely with Product and Engineering in an iterative environment.
• Strong communication, facilitation, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to make progress amid ambiguity.
• A portfolio featuring case studies that highlight your role, design process, decision-making, collaboration, and outcomes.

Highly Desired

• Familiarity with user research tools such as Dovetail (transcripts, tagging, themes, repositories, insights).
• Experience with security data, detections, alerts, investigations, threat intelligence, telemetry, data pipelines, or analytical workflows.
• Experience designing for multi-tenant environments, roles, permissions, or varied technical expertise levels.

A Plus

• Understanding of accessible product design and inclusive interaction practices.
• Familiarity with WCAG principles, keyboard interactions, focus management, semantic structure, color contrast, and accessible content patterns.
• Familiarity with OCSF, MITRE ATT&CK, KQL, Sigma, detection rules, or threat intelligence frameworks.
