As Design Manager, you'll lead a team of 5–6 product designers, owning both the day-to-day coordination of design work and the people management of your team. You'll be the connective tissue between planning, execution, and individual support; and you’ll be the person your designers rely on for feedback, growth, and career development.

What You'll Do

  • Work allocation: Assign design work based on priorities, skills, and availability.

  • Day-to-day operations: Keep projects moving and be the person designers go to when they're blocked.

  • Engineering partnership: Be the main design counterpart for Engineering and Product leads on planning and delivery.

  • Team health: Track how each designer is doing: who's thriving, who needs support and build plans to help each grow.

  • Escalation point: Resolve blockers and cross-team friction.

  • Design operations support: Keep shared tools and processes current and followed. Help shape the evolving role of Design at Ontic, including the working agreements between Engineering, Product, and Design.

🎯 Candidate Preparation Guide For Ontic Applicants

Key Role Competencies & Evaluation Highlights

Key Role Focus:

Evaluators strictly measure your ability to handle complex physical and digital security intelligence workflows, assessing your operational judgment under high-stakes, ambiguous threat scenarios.

📋 Preparation Priorities (Key Areas to Clarify):
  • 1. Treating physical security as a purely administrative or compliance checkbox rather than a dynamic threat surface
  • 2. Failing to show cross-functional empathy between corporate security, IT, and legal teams
  • 3. Lack of direct experience dealing with enterprise-grade threat monitoring
✨ Recommended Role Alignment Hook:

I build protective intelligence workflows that transform fragmented risk data into decisive operational actions before threats materialize.
