MCS Group are delighted to be partnering with a Belfast-based AI technology company building secure, enterprise-grade artificial intelligence solutions for highly regulated industries including defence, national security, government, financial services, healthcare and education.

Founded nearly a decade ago, the business began as a specialist AI consultancy delivering complex projects in secure environments before evolving into a product-led organisation with its own proprietary AI platform.

Their flagship platform is an AI operating system designed to operate in cloud, edge and highly secure environments - and they’re now hiring a Lead Product Designer to take ownership of user experience across the platform.

The Opportunity

This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll shape the UX and interaction design of a complex AI platform used in real-world, mission-critical environments.

You’ll:

• Lead end-to-end product design from discovery to delivery
• Design AI-first interfaces, including application builders and natural language workflows
• Own and evolve the internal design system
• Work closely with Product and Engineering to influence roadmap and strategy
• Mentor designers and help scale design best practice

This role suits someone who enjoys solving complex problems and shipping production-grade products in fast-moving environments.

What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years’ product design experience (enterprise/B2B preferred)
• Experience designing complex platforms or systems
• Exposure to AI / Generative AI environments
• Strong systems thinking and stakeholder communication skills
• Comfortable working hands-on while influencing strategic direction
• Ability to obtain UK Security Clearance (preferred)

Why Join?

• Work on cutting-edge AI products with real-world impact
• High ownership and visibility
• Collaborative, close-knit product team
• Hybrid working (Belfast-based with a 4 day week at times throughout the year)
• Up to £90,000 + strong work-life balance benefits
