VIA is making an impact, and so can you.
Headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, VIA is a mission-critical software company that enables organizations to share and analyze sensitive data at speed without compromising security or control. VIA’s decentralized architecture keeps data sovereign, while its agentic AI helps organizations solve critical challenges, and its military-grade security governs access. Designed for simplicity, rapid deployment, and disconnected environments, VIA makes sensitive data usable wherever the mission happens, even offline. The Department of War, Fortune 50 companies, and critical infrastructure companies around the globe trust VIA to help them solve their toughest analytics and digital security challenges.

Our technology protects the world’s most sensitive data, and we’re looking for a Principal Product Designer who can make advanced AI and security infrastructure feel intuitive, trusted, and human.
As a Principal Product Designer at VIA, you will be embedded within our AI platform team, partnering closely with our Design Team, Product Owners, and Engineering to own end-to-end design for complex, high-stakes systems. Our products sit at the intersection of artificial intelligence, secure data exploration, and agentic workflows, built for environments where trust, precision, and data protection are non-negotiable. In this role, you will help define what we build and how it works, translating sophisticated technical architectures and real-world customer challenges into experiences that are as intuitive as they are secure. You’ll take ownership from discovery through handoff, moving fluidly between strategic problem framing and high-fidelity execution.
Are you ready to join us?
In this role, you will:
•
Own end-to-end UX/UI design across VIA’s product suite, including AI-native platforms, agentic workflow interfaces, multiplayer and collaborative data environments, and permission-controlled data sharing experiences
•
Rapidly translate high-level workflows into low-fidelity mockups that give engineering teams something concrete to react to, reducing ambiguity and accelerating iteration
•
Design for secure-by-default interaction patterns where data visibility, access control, and sharing are core UX constraints, not afterthoughts
•
Collaborate with stakeholders to evaluate tradeoffs between technical complexity and user value, influencing roadmap direction
•
Lead strategic design efforts for data-driven platforms, focusing on cohesive workflows and scalable systems rather than isolated screens
•
Partner with Engineering to explore technical constraints, align on backend logic, and support thoughtful execution of complex features
•
Translate technical requirements and security-focused constraints into clear, high-fidelity product concepts
•
Transition seamlessly from high-level strategy and wireframing to the execution of prototypes, component documentation, and UI copy
•
Champion the responsible leveraging of AI as a key aspect of our human-centered design process, helping to refine our AI-first design efforts.
•
Establish and evolve design patterns and principles that support long-term consistency and scalability across our technology suite
Requirements
•
8+ years of product design experience, with at least 3 in complex enterprise or technical domains (AI platforms, cybersecurity, identity, or data-intensive systems)
•
Technical fluency: You’re comfortable working directly with engineering, reading system architecture, and designing within real constraints, not around them. You can synthesize complex information quickly and influence product direction as a result
•
Agentic and collaborative workflow experience: You’ve navigated UX problems where multiple users or multiple agents interact with shared state, and you know how to make those flows feel clear, not chaotic
•
Strategic curiosity: You are known for asking the right questions that uncover hidden technical problems or user needs in high-stakes environments
•
Systemic thinking: You have a proven ability to design for complex workflows and security-focused systems where trust and precision are paramount
•
Strong visual design sensibility: You have a keen aesthetic eye and can bring clarity and craft to complex, technical interfaces
•
Design leadership and mentorship: You are a champion for design excellence and take an active role in scaling the team by mentoring designers, refining our internal processes, and elevating the quality of our collective output
