ABOUT THE COMPANY

We’re a fast-scaling, venture-backed startup operating in enterprise financial services, focused on automating complex, human-driven workflows using applied AI. Our team is reimagining how technology can be used to make difficult processes simpler and more reliable for both professionals and consumers.

We’re building real, production-ready automation that enterprise customers rely on, not prototypes or marketing demos. The business is growing quickly, has strong commercial traction, and is on a clear path to long-term sustainability.

This is a rare chance to join early, shape the product and design systems from the ground up, and have your work used daily by real customers at scale.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re hiring a Founding Product Designer (Senior / Staff level) to lead design for our flagship product. You’ll own end-to-end design: from research and interaction models to high-fidelity UI and design system architecture. This isn’t a role where systems are handed to you. you’ll build them.

You’ll collaborate directly with founders, engineers, and product leaders, shipping work that is used by enterprise customers and iterated on in production. If you want to set the design language for a product that’s solving large, real-world problems with applied AI, this is the opportunity.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Lead product design for a flagship, workflow-heavy SaaS product used daily by professionals.
• Turn messy, real-world processes into clear, efficient, and trustworthy interfaces.
• Build and maintain a cohesive design system in Figma.
• Prototype and iterate rapidly; validate designs through user research and customer feedback.
• Work closely with engineering to ship production-ready features.
• Be a founding design voice! help hire, mentor, and shape the design culture as we scale.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

• 5–10+ years of product design experience, ideally in SaaS, enterprise, or fintech.
• Strong experience with workflow-heavy, data-rich products (not marketing-only work).
• Portfolio with clear case studies: problem, process, trade-offs, and measurable impact.
• Mastery of Figma and design systems.
• Comfort working in fast-moving startup environments and building systems from scratch.
• Bonus: familiarity with front-end technologies (CSS/HTML) or ability to prototype in code.

NICE TO HAVES

• Startup or high-growth company experience.
• Prior work on automation/AI-driven product experiences.
• Evidence of shipping production features and working directly with enterprise customers.
