Senior Product Designer – Maia Platform (AI Data Automation)
Are you ready to shape the future of data?
Matillion is the company behind Maia, the AI Data Automation platform. In the AI economy, demand for data is exploding—manual data engineering can’t keep up. Maia fixes that by combining 15 years of data expertise with agentic AI to eliminate the manual work that slows data teams down. Organisations like Cisco, DocuSign, and Slack are already using it to deliver real business impact, faster.
We started in Manchester and now we’re global—with teams across the UK, US, and India.
We’re driven, curious people who move fast, think big, and hold ourselves to a high standard. We’re here to make a dent in the universe bigger than ourselves. And we’re looking for people who want to be part of it.
About the Role
We’re Matillion, and we’re building Maia, our agentic AI platform that helps data teams design, build, and manage pipelines faster—and with far less manual effort.
Design at Matillion is about balancing curiosity and a genuine love for innovation with real care for detail and craft. For Product Design, this is a rare opportunity to shape how humans collaborate with AI to solve genuinely complex technical problems.
As a Senior Product Designer, you’ll:
- Own critical product areas,
- Drive strategic design direction, and
- Work at the intersection of AI and data engineering—a space where very few interaction standards exist yet.
This is meaningful ownership, high-impact craft, and a chance to help define what the future of AI-enabled experiences looks like. We value in-person collaboration, so this role will ideally follow our hybrid pattern of 2 days a week in our Manchester office. However, we’re flexible for the right person.
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.

What You’ll Be Doing
- Leading end-to-end design across discovery, definition, prototyping, testing, and high-fidelity delivery, owning your product areas from problem framing through to shipped solutions
- Translating complex AI behaviours and technical workflows into clear, trustworthy, and intuitive interactions for data teams
- Defining and evolving new interaction patterns for human-AI collaboration in emerging, undefined spaces, essentially writing the rulebook
- Partnering closely with Product and Engineering in a tight trio—shaping how solutions come to life and ensuring seamless connection between intent and execution
- Raising the bar for design quality and systems thinking across the team while actively contributing to a stronger, more mature Product Design culture at Matillion
What We’re Looking For
- Demonstrable experience designing complex products in fast-paced SaaS environments, with a proven track record of owning and delivering high-impact product areas independently
- A strong portfolio that demonstrates:
- Clear end-to-end thinking
- Sharp problem solving
- High-quality execution (not just beautiful screens)
- Experience working on complex systems, technical workflows, or data-heavy products; you’re comfortable in the weeds and energised by them
- A genuine curiosity about AI-driven experiences and emerging interaction paradigms, willing to create standards rather than wait for them to exist
- The confidence to influence senior stakeholders, represent Design at the table, and balance big-picture vision with meticulous attention to detail
