Twingate is building a modern remote access solution that simplifies and improves the way businesses secure access to their cloud, SaaS, and on-prem resources. Twingate is backed by leading investors such as BOND, WndrCo, 8VC, Green Bay Ventures, SignalFire, and Dropbox founders Drew Houston and Arash Ferdowsi. Our investors share our belief that in a world where workforces are becoming increasingly distributed, it is critical to be able to effectively secure access to apps, data, and environments.
As part of our company culture, our belief in putting the customer first permeates our thinking in everything from our customer communications to the design process behind the product itself. If you take pride in creating experiences with the customer firmly at the center of the picture, we'd love to work with you.
The Role
At its core, Twingate is a team of builders who believe design thinking paired with strong visual execution is the secret to changing the status quo of an industry. If you share this belief and want to apply this mindset to the outdated VPN and network security space, we’d love to talk.
We are looking for a Staff Product Designer to shape the future of our product. You’ll own large areas of the current Twingate experience like our suite of 5 native client applications, admin console, and new product surfaces. The role emphasizes product thinking, craft, and rapid prototyping.
