About the role
We find and fix every vulnerability in our customers' applications. When a new AI model is released, we run it against their applications before attackers do, and close what it finds.
The Role
Wakefield's agents do work a person used to do: test an application, prove a bug, write the fix. The people who rely on them range from security engineers to a CEO who has never heard of an IDOR. As our first designer, you'll own how all of it looks and feels: the console, the design system, the reports, and the Wakefield brand and website.
What You'll Work on
- Proof that anyone can follow: a recording, the requests and a fix, in one view.
- Following agents at work: what they're doing, why, and what they'll try next.
- Reports a CISO hands to a board, and briefings for leaders who aren't technical.
- Trust and control: scope, approvals, and stopping a scan at once.
- One design system across the console and the website.
- The Wakefield brand: identity, website and motion.
Requirements
- A strong portfolio of shipped product work with precise visual and interaction craft
- Time at a fast-growing startup
- You've built design from scratch: a design system, a brand, or both
- You've shipped with engineers to real users and kept iterating after launch
- You make complex, dense systems simple without hiding what matters
- You use AI tools every day to prototype and ship, and still own every detail
- You design for fun because you genuinely care about the craft
Nice to Have
- You code: you prototype or ship production UI and design system code yourself
- You've designed security, developer or data-heavy products
How We Hire
- Meet the co-founders.
- A one-week paid trial with us in the office.
- Offer.
Logistics
- Location: San Francisco, in person. Most of the team is in the office every day.
- Compensation: Competitive salary and meaningful equity.
- Visa: We sponsor visas and support you through the immigration process.
About Wakefield
Wakefield is an applied research lab working on AI-native security services. We build security agents and publish how they work. Our methods, benchmark and raw data are public so anyone can check them.
- Source code optional: blackbox agents sign in as every role and test the running app. Whitebox agents read the code on every pull request.
- If Wakefield can't prove it, the customer never sees it: agents replay each finding in a real browser and record it. Then Wakefield writes the fix, ready to open as a pull request, and retests it. We have SLAs for zero false positives.
- One service that replaces DAST, SAST, SCA, SBOM, and the tests companies run in-house or buy in.
