Design Systems, Quality & Accessibilityย
- Create andย maintainย reusable components, design-system primitives, interaction patterns, and frontend conventions that help the product scale consistentlyย
- Improve interface quality through thoughtfulย componentย architecture, responsive behavior, browser performance, accessibility, and cross-device polishย
- Contribute to documentation, examples, usage guidance, and review practices that help engineers and designers apply patterns consistentlyย
- Identifyย and address UX debt, visual inconsistencies, and frontend quality risks before they become entrenched in the productย
Collaboration, Research & Iterationย
- Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Security, Operations, and SMEs to understand workflows, constraints, and user pain pointsย
- Use customer feedback, usability findings, analytics, and stakeholder input to improve product clarity and usefulness over timeย
- Balance userย delightย with operational, compliance, security, and engineering constraintsย appropriate forย a regulated fintech environmentย
Culture & Craftย
- Contribute to a culture of ownership, curiosity, taste, pragmatism, and high product craftย
- Raise the bar through thoughtful design critique, clear communication, strong frontend execution, and sound product judgmentย
Qualifications- 4-7+ years of experience designing and building high-quality software products, ideally in a fast-moving product engineering environmentย
- Strong portfolio or body of shipped workย demonstratingย product taste, interaction design judgment, visual craft, and frontend implementation qualityย
- Hands-on experience with Figma or similar design tools and a strong command of UX flows, hierarchy, typography, spacing, and visual polishย
- Strong frontend engineering experience with React, TypeScript, modern CSS, responsive layouts,ย componentย architecture, browser fundamentals, and production frontend practicesย
- Experience turningย rough ideasย into working prototypes and then hardening successful prototypes into maintainable product experiencesย
- Ability toย design forย desktop and mobile experiences, including responsive behavior, accessibility, performance, and cross-browser qualityย
- Comfort working with AI-enabled, data-heavy, integration-heavy, or operationally critical product experiences where clarity and trust matterย
- Working knowledge of design systems, reusable components, interaction patterns, and frontend quality practicesย
- Comfort using AI-native tools, coding agents, and rapid prototyping workflows to accelerate exploration and implementationย
- Good judgment in ambiguous environments where the path is not fully defined and the team needs to go from zero to oneย
- Clear communication skills with both technical and non-technical teammatesย
Preferred Experienceย
- Experience building design systems, internal platforms, developer tools, workflow products, or complex B2B software for fast-moving product teamsย
- Experience in fintech, mortgage, lending, payments, insurance, or other regulated domainsย
- Experience designing and building AI product experiences, including copilots, agentic workflows, human-in-the-loop review, trust surfaces, or model-output interfacesย
- Experience improving user activation, usability, frontend performance, accessibility, design consistency, or design-to-code velocity as systems grow
