Product Design About Virtualitics Virtualitics is the category leader in AI-native readiness applications for defense, government, and critical infrastructure. Founded on a decade of Caltech research in partnership with NASA/JPL, we are led by scientists, strategists, and servicemembers united by a single mission: to solve the world’s most complex, mission-critical challenges with AI. Our Readiness AI solutions deliver operational certainty — giving leaders and operators a clear picture of what’s ready, what’s at risk, and what to do next. By identifying risks early, diagnosing root causes, and recommending prioritized actions with transparent, explainable AI, we help organizations move from data complexity to decision advantage. Behind that impact is relentless innovation. Inventors at heart, we hold 15+ U.S. patents and are leading the shift toward agent-driven readiness. But what truly sets us apart is our culture — relentless about results, grounded in transparency, and driven by compassion for the mission and the people it serves. If you’re motivated by impact, inspired by technical depth, and ready to build AI that performs where it matters most — you’ll find your mission here. What you will be doing Own ambiguous, loosely scoped design problems end to end across multiple concurrent projects with minimal direction. Serve as the primary design point of contact on engagements: shaping UX heavily at kickoff, then transitioning ownership to the project team as the work matures. Define interaction patterns for agent-driven experiences, including how users interact with agents, how responses are structured, how follow-on actions chain, and how errors surface consistently across deployments. Leverage and extend our design system and component library, strengthening the patterns that PMs and engineers compose from every day. Establish design prototypes with Product Managers in Figma, Claude, or code that set the design framework a project team inherits. Lead UX reviews of features, agent responses, generated UI, and layouts ensuring a high quality output before shipping. Use workflows, journey maps, and service mapping to ground your rationale and bring cross-functional partners along. Help shape scope, timelines, and cross-functional alignment with Product Management, Engineering, and Customer Success. Mentor less experienced designers and raise the standard of critique.
