Product Designer, Native Platforms (iOS & Mac) bei Sweep360

Description

TL;DR — We’re building humanity’s defense layer for the AI age and looking for a high-agency Product Designer, Native Platforms (iOS & Mac) with an exceptional eye for detail to turn direction and constraints into concrete interfaces and systems that work under pressure.

If you want to move fast and work directly with the CEO and Head of Engineering—translating vision into high-stakes product used by elite teams—this is that role.

Why Sweep?

As intelligent machines proliferate into every part of the physical world, humans still lack a defense layer to ensure the systems and devices we rely on remain aligned with us.

Sweep is building that layer today. Our technology is already deployed alongside some of the world’s highest-stakes teams—from decision-makers and elite market-movers to frontline journalists, chart-topping artists, record-breaking athletes, and history-bending scientists. What we learn there becomes the foundation for a civilization-defining capability.

We’re a small, talent-dense team with a bias for high ownership, high velocity, and low ego. We care deeply, move fast, and are here to build something that outlives us.

Together, we’ll redefine cyber-physical security for the AI age.

What makes this role special?

• Define the visual language and system standards for Sweep across iOS, macOS, and web—starting with mobile.
• Design interfaces for elite users operating in high-pressure, high-stakes environments.
• Translate high-level product direction into precise UI decisions in direct collaboration with the CEO.
• Join field visits with the CEO—whether backstage, in briefing rooms, or on-site with high-profile teams.
• Collaborate with engineers and users to observe what works, what fails, and why—and ship again.
• Earn pre-Series A ownership as one of Sweep’s first 10 employees.
  

What we’re looking for

• A sharp portfolio showing Figma systems thinking & native iOS prototypes—clean, layered, interaction-ready.
• Track record of shipping designs used in high-stakes, real-world environments.
• Comfort working on dense, layered UIs with strong platform constraints.
• Willingness to learn SwiftUI and prototype in code where helpful.
• Operates with urgency, focus, and ownership. You know what “done” looks like.
• Emotional discipline and professional presence. You may be in rooms with top military, government, or private sector leaders—your work will speak, but so will you.
• U.S. Person status required (may involve export-controlled data).
  

Bonus if you’ve

• Mastered Framer, Mapbox, or spatial UI / Liquid Glass in real projects.
• Designed motion, transitions, or micro-interactions for iOS.
• Excel in Apple Human Interface Guidelines beyond surface level.
• Worked in a founding or early-stage startup environment.
• Operated with discretion in sensitive or high-profile environments.
  

What you’ll do

• Design interfaces for iOS, macOS, and eventually web-based systems—prioritizing mobile first.
• Extend Sweep’s design language across platforms with consistency and performance under pressure.
• Maintain and evolve shared design systems in Figma (auto-layout, component libraries, interaction patterns).
• Prototype in Framer or SwiftUI when visual clarity or handoff fidelity demands it.
• Collaborate closely with iOS and full-stack engineers to implement designs precisely.
• Iterate rapidly based on usage in live environments—observing, correcting, and re-shipping.
• Travel occasionally (~25%) to work alongside users and see real deployment contexts.
  

How we select

• Short application
• 20-minute intro call
• Design / interaction deep-dive
• Show us work you’ve shipped and what you learned from it
