Swarm Aero is redefining air power, building the largest swarming UAV and the most versatile swarming aircraft network in the world. The company is moving quickly to launch the first aircraft designed specifically for swarming, as well as the Command & Control software to mobilize swarms of thousands of heterogeneous autonomous assets and empower human operators to achieve superhuman results.

The team has created and exited multiple startups, negotiated defense deals worth billions of dollars, and designed and built 30+ novel aircraft, with aerospace experience from Scaled Composites, Airbus, Archer Aviation, Blue Origin, and Boom Supersonic.

Turn clear product direction into exceptional, implementation-ready product experiences.

You will work directly with the Head of Product to take written product specifications, workflow descriptions, existing product patterns, screenshots, and rough Figma-frame descriptions and turn them into polished, coherent, buildable designs.

This is a highly execution-oriented design role. We are looking for someone who can move quickly from concept to detailed UI without requiring constant direction or extensive design ceremonies.

Translate detailed product specifications into high-quality Figma designs.

- Design workflows for complex command-and-control and operational software.
- Take rough frame descriptions and independently determine layout, hierarchy, interaction details, and edge cases.
- Review implemented functionality and identify discrepancies between design intent and the built product.
- Help evolve the overall UX architecture of Legion as the product expands.
- Rapidly iterate based on operator, engineering, and customer feedback.
- Fill in reasonable UX details independently rather than requiring every interaction to be explicitly specified.





You receive a well-written product spec and a description of the required Figma frames.

The resulting Figma should be clear enough that engineering can build from it, polished enough to show a customer, and thoughtful enough that the Head of Product does not need to design every interaction personally.

You are comfortable designing dense, information-rich software rather than only simple consumer applications.

You can distinguish between a product question that requires escalation and a design detail that you should simply solve.

Command-and-control systems

- Aerospace or defense software
- Mission planning software
- Industrial or operational software
- Design systems
- Software used in time-sensitive or safety-critical environments

It is not primarily a UX research role.

It is not a role centered around workshops, design-thinking exercises, or producing large amounts of process documentation.

You must be exceptionally positive at turning product intent into excellent software designs quickly.

Product specifications routinely move into Figma without the Head of Product personally designing them.

- Legion has stronger UX consistency across features.
- Design iteration cycles become significantly faster.
- The Head of Product spends more time on strategy, customers, and product decisions, and less time producing individual screens.
