About Fin

Fin is a next-generation payments platform built for high-value, global, and instant transactions. We are a Series A-stage company backed by Sequoia, Circle, and other notable investors. Powered by stablecoins, Fin enables users and businesses to move millions of dollars in seconds - whether to other Fin users, directly into bank accounts, or across crypto rails. By combining the speed of crypto with the reliability and trust of traditional finance, Fin reimagines how money moves worldwide. If banks and payment products were reinvented today, they would look like Fin.

About the role

Fin is hiring a Head of Design to own design across the product.

You will be our only full-time designer, reporting to the CEO and working directly with the product and engineering team. This is a hands-on role for someone who can operate as a one-person design function: understanding the problem, deciding what good should look like, producing the work, and staying involved until it ships.

We move quickly and the work will not always arrive as a complete brief. You should be comfortable creating clarity from ambiguity, making practical tradeoffs, and moving between large product initiatives and the smaller design work that comes up along the way.

What you’ll do
  • Evolve Fin's design system, ensuring consistency and scalability across mobile and web as the product grows

  • Shape product decisions through strong product thinking, helping define what gets built and why, not just how it looks

  • Bring high craft to visual UI work, from interaction details to polish on shipped features

  • Move fast: iterate quickly across early concepts, prototypes, and shipped product without getting stuck in over-process

  • Take on a range of design responsibilities as needed, from core product UI to marketing assets and other brand touchpoints

  • Work closely with engineers and cofounders daily, translating ambiguous problems into clear, buildable designs. The role is centered on core product design.

What we’re looking for
  • Deep expertise of Figma

  • Working knowledge of Adobe Illustrator

  • Has worked at pre-Series B company

  • Passionate about product in addition to design

  • Pushing the limits on new AI tooling for design

  • Comfort handling a broad range of design problems without specialized support

  • Strong communication and an effective working style with founders and engineers

  • A high degree of accountability for what ultimately ships

  • 5+ Years of experience

Experience in fintech is helpful but not required. Experience with consumer products, SMB products, or other software with a high UX bar is relevant.
