  • Help build a strong product and design culture through thoughtful collaboration

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience as a product designer, ideally on fintech, financial tools, or SMB products with a product-led growth approach

  • Comfort designing workflow-driven products; understanding (or interest in learning) of basic financial concepts as applied to SMB businesses

  • High craft and strong UX rigor with a thoughtful focus on hierarchy, interaction, and polish that turns complexity into intuitive experiences

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across product, engineering, and business teams

  • Demonstrated ability to make thoughtful tradeoffs between clarity, usability, and scope in complex systems

You'll thrive at Highbeam if...

  • You love working in-person with a high-performing team

  • You enjoy working in an idea-meritocratic, low-ego environment

  • You are proactive and self-directed, and you excel in ambiguous, fast moving environments

  • You care about delivering a polished customer experience

  • Bonus: You have experience working in fintech, AI or early-stage startups

What we offer

  • Chance to join the founding team of a well-funded startup chasing a huge opportunity
