About Hazel

Hazel is building the AI engine for wealth management that helps unlock 10x growth, efficiency and value for financial advisors and their clients in a regulated industry. Since its launch last September, Hazel has organically and rapidly grown its user base.

Hazel is a part of Altruist's broader mission to make financial advice better, more affordable, and accessible to all.

This role is hybrid, with four in-office days per week at our San Francisco FiDi location.

The opportunity

Altruist is building the modern infrastructure for independent financial advisors. At the center of that future is Hazel - the AI platform for financial advisors that integrates across their tech stack and transforms data into actionable outcomes. Hazel represents the most ambitious expression of our brand: intelligent, calm, precise, and deeply human. Design plays a critical role in defining what that future looks and feels like.

We're hiring a Lead Brand Designer to lead the visual evolution of Hazel across its entire ecosystem. This is not a support role. It's a leadership role within brand responsible for shaping how our AI product shows up across product surfaces, launches, campaigns, motion, storytelling, and emerging experiences. The ideal candidate thinks quickly, designs thoughtfully, and pushes work beyond the obvious. They bring impeccable taste, a sharp point of view, and a deep understanding of contemporary design - while also knowing when restraint is the most powerful move.

This designer will also partner closely with Product Design to  influence the user experience of Hazel, ensuring brand and product feel unified and intentional. They will also collaborate with motion designers, illustrators, and cross-functional teams to bring new ideas to life across the Hazel surfaces. This role operates as a thought partner to Creative Leadership on new Hazel initiatives and long-term brand direction.

This role is hybrid, with four in-office days per week at our San Francisco FiDi location.

• Lead the visual design and ongoing evolution of the Hazel brand

• A portfolio that demonstrates exceptional craft, strong systems thinking, and modern sensibility

• Fluency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite; bonus points for motion literacy
• Strong understanding of current visual trends, digital culture, and AI-driven creative tools
• Ability to think conceptually and execute with precision
• Comfort operating in fast-moving, ambiguous environments
• Strong collaboration skills and the confidence to influence cross-functional partners

This role is a fit if...

• You move fast without sacrificing craft
• You care deeply about typography, hierarchy, interaction, and nuance
• You experiment intelligently and push ideas forward
• You can zoom out to system-level thinking and zoom in to pixel-level detail

What success looks like

• Hazel has a distinctive, forward-looking visual identity that feels cohesive across product and brand
• Creative output feels modern, intelligent, and unmistakably premium
• Product and brand teams operate as a unified design force
