Principal Product Designer
Belfast | Flexi-hybrid
Most product design roles ask you to make software easier to use. This one asks you to make the invisible visible — turning early warning signs of insider threats, executive risk and digital exposure into product experiences that security teams can actually act on, fast.
The Opportunity
A fast-growing, well-funded cybersecurity intelligence company is building an AI-powered risk platform from the ground up, and hiring a Principal Product Designer to own design strategy end-to-end. This is genuine 0→1 work alongside evolving what's already shipped — not maintaining someone else's system.
What You'll Do
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
