About The Position

At Rune, we’re building the software infrastructure that enables the U.S. and allied militaries to sustain operations in contested, resource-constrained environments. As a Senior Product Designer, you’ll play a central role in shaping TyrOS — our logistics command platform — from concept to deployed interface.
You’ll design products that support critical missions: routing convoys, managing inventory, coordinating repairs, and allocating scarce resources under pressure. The stakes are high — users depend on clarity, trust, and speed. Your role is to translate complex logistical workflows into interfaces that feel intuitive, empowering, and purpose-built.
This role combines systems thinking, user empathy, and a rigorous design process. You’ll work closely with engineers, product managers, and operational experts to research, prototype, and deliver new features that directly impact how warfighters and logistics planners operate in the field.

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience designing complex web applications, dashboards, or decision-support tools.
• Portfolio that demonstrates end-to-end design thinking: from research and ideation to final UI execution.
• Strong skills in interaction design, information architecture, and visual design.
• Proficiency with modern design tools such as Figma or similar.
• Ability to create and iterate on wireframes, mockups, and clickable prototypes.
• Comfortable working in cross-functional teams and engaging directly with technical and operational stakeholders.

Nice To Haves

• Experience designing tools for domains such as logistics, operations, defense, or healthcare — where clarity, speed, and accuracy are paramount.
• Familiarity with geospatial or time-based data visualization (e.g., maps, timelines, charts).
• Experience working in fast-paced environments with evolving requirements and mission-driven goals.
• Understanding of responsive design and frontend constraints (esp. React-based workflows).

Responsibilities

• Lead the design of critical workflows and interfaces in TyrOS, Rune’s logistics command platform.
• Conduct user research and translate field needs into clean, usable, and responsive UI patterns.
• Develop wireframes, prototypes, and detailed specs for new features across web and edge-based systems.
• Partner with product and engineering teams to ensure designs are implemented with a high level of fidelity and performance.
• Help establish and evolve a design system that supports consistency and speed across our product suite.
• Advocate for user needs in all phases of development — from concept to deployment.
• Contribute to the product strategy by bringing insight into how user experience shapes mission outcomes.
