Title: Product Designer

Location: West Bend Wisconsin US

Full time

Hybrid

At Delta Defense, Product Designers do more than create digital experiences. They help build the tools that serve responsible American gun owners and support a mission rooted in freedom, preparedness, and the right to self-defense.

The Product Designer partners closely with Product Managers, engineers, and business stakeholders to create intuitive, user-centered experiences across the USCCA product ecosystem. Embedded within product teams, this role translates user needs, business goals, and technical requirements into clear interaction models, user flows, wireframes, and prototypes that move ideas from concept to delivery.

This role is for someone who sweats the small stuff, takes ownership, and understands that strong products are built through discipline, collaboration, and constant improvement. Product Designers shape how our products work and how users interact with them, leveraging our Figma design system and established UI standards to quickly produce mockups and prototypes that support engineering execution.

When new patterns or interfaces are needed, the Product Designer collaborates with the UX Strategist to refine experience direction and partners with Marketing Creative to transition work into high-fidelity UI aligned with brand and visual standards. While the UX Strategist leads experience strategy and research direction, the Product Designer owns interaction execution within product teams using pre-configured, brand-approved components.

This role contributes to meaningful work across internal employee systems, member experiences, partner platforms, and digital sales products. For a designer who wants to do mission-driven work in a freedom-loving, high-standard culture, this is an opportunity to help build products that matter.
