Product Designer

Comand AI's mission is to build next-generation C2 software with real users in real deployments in the field. We are fully indexed on the success of every single user, which means even an early concept has to make a complex operational idea clear and credible.

The BD Product Designer turns a promising customer conversation into something people can see, use, and react to quickly. This role is distinct from core product design. Core product designers go deep on durable product experiences; you help the business development team make a future capability tangible, then feed what you learn back into product.

What this looks like in practice

Turn an emerging customer need into a convincing prototype in days, even when the original brief is incomplete or contradictory

Choose the fastest useful medium for the problem: a polished Figma prototype, an AI-assisted coded mock-up, an interactive concept, or a demo video

Bring real design craft to rapid work so every prototype feels credible in front of senior defence and government stakeholders

Work closely with business development, product design, product, and forward-deployed teams to understand the opportunity and define what the demonstration needs to prove

Make confident decisions under pressure, balancing the needs of a specific conversation with the patterns and principles of the core product

Capture what each prototype teaches us, so strong commercial signals can shape future product decisions

Who We're Looking For

We filter hardest on design craft, speed, judgement, low ego, and comfort with ambiguity. This role suits someone who can make a strong call with incomplete information and refine it quickly when new evidence arrives.

Must-have

A portfolio showing high-quality interaction and visual design across complex digital products

Experience taking ambiguous problems from an initial conversation to a prototype that helps people make a decision

Strong command of modern product design and prototyping tools

Speed without sloppiness: you can reuse an existing pattern when it is the right trade-off and create a new one when the idea demands it

Clear communication with technical, commercial, and non-technical stakeholders

Resilience when an important demo arrives on short notice

EU or UK citizenship (contractual requirement tied to our defence contracts)

Nice to have

Comfort building prototypes in code, including with AI-assisted development tools

Experience designing B2B, enterprise, or technically complex software

Experience with mapping, geospatial interfaces, or data-dense operational workflows

Motion design or demo-video production skills

Prior work in defence, government, or dual-use technology

What's In It For You

A top 0.1% European compensation package, including base salary and equity

Paris or London based

Work that goes directly in front of prospective customers and can influence what gets built next

A clear mandate to experiment across design, code, and storytelling
