Job description

Pune or Bangalore, India - Full-Time (Hybrid / Remote)

About the Role

We’re looking for a self-driven Senior UX Designer who can independently own complex problem spaces from discovery through delivery.

You’ll join a lean 3-person design team and work directly with product and engineering. This is a role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, simplifies complexity, and can design structured workflows for technical enterprise users.

You will operate in an extremely fast-paced environment where product direction evolves quickly based on customer feedback and market shifts. If you prefer clearly defined lanes and slow cycles, you might find this role challenging.

If you enjoy building structures where none exist, you’ll thrive.

About Lightbeam

Lightbeam converges data security, privacy, and governance so organizations can confidently scale across cloud, SaaS, and on-prem environments.

Powered by generative AI, Lightbeam pioneered an identity-centric, automation-first approach to data security. Unlike siloed tools, Lightbeam provides unified visibility and control across structured and unstructured data, enabling organizations to:

• Discover and classify sensitive data at scale
• Identify and remediate risky and excessive access
• Enforce security controls directly at the data layer
• Continuously monitor exposure and misconfigurations
• Strengthen resilience against ransomware and accidental data exposure
• Comply with global data privacy regulations.

Why Join Lightbeam

• High Impact: Your work directly influences how enterprises secure sensitive data.
• Ownership: Significant autonomy with meaningful product influence.
• Greenfield Opportunity: Shape UX standards in a fast-evolving domain.
• Lean Team: Work directly with founders and core engineering.
• Flexibility: Hybrid/remote setup with focus on outcomes.

What You’ll Do

Own Problem Discovery

• Partner with Product Managers and Engineering to define design opportunities
• Ask the right questions to understand user needs, business goals, and technical constraints
• Frame design problems clearly before jumping to solutions

Design Complex Workflows

• Simplify multi-step, multi-role security workflows
• Design intuitive interfaces for risk dashboards, remediation flows, access reviews, and governance controls
• Maintain and evolve the design system to ensure consistency and scalability

Drive Cross-Functional Alignment

• Build consensus across engineering, compliance, leadership, and GTM teams
• Present and defend design decisions clearly and confidently
• Translate complex security concepts into understandable UX patterns

Research in Constrained Environments

• Develop creative research approaches when direct user access is limited
• Leverage customer success insights, analytics, support tickets, and competitive analysis

Deliver End-to-End

• Create wireframes, flows, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs
• Work closely with engineering on implementation details
• Ensure shipped designs meet usability and quality standards

Explore AI-Driven Experiences

• Experiment with AI-assisted workflows and automation features
• Design experiences that make AI understandable, controllable, and trustworthy

• Clear problem-solving process
• Measurable business impact
