Lead the UX design for core products, focusing on complex systems and innovative interactions. Create prototypes, collaborate with engineering, and establish a design system for scalability and consistency.
Position Summary
We’re hiring our first Product Designer to define the experience layer of new ways investors work with AI. This is less about pixel-perfect UI and more about inventing net-new UX - navigating complex tasks, ambiguous problem spaces, and interaction patterns that don’t yet exist.
What we’re looking for
- Systems-level UX: You design flows for complexity - multi-step tasks, agent feedback loops, and rich data.
- Technical curiosity: You can prototype with real data (and ideally a bit of code) to learn fast.
- Taste + rigor: Strong information architecture, interaction design, and usability instincts.
- Velocity: You move from sketch → prototype → shipped, bringing teams along with crisp rationale.
- Opinionated: Deep level of understanding of current design landscape and patterns, making both overarching design patterns and granular micro-interaction design decisions based on understanding rather than preference - diving deep on unknown trends in order to build the best product.
Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end UX for core products; define patterns that scale.
- Prototype high-fidelity interactions; validate with users; iterate quickly.
- Partner with engineering to shape feasible APIs/constraints that improve the UX.
- Establish the design system and foundations for accessibility and consistency.
- Own the overall storybook of our customer facing surfaces.
Nice to have
- Experience designing AI-forward products (agents, retrieval, model feedback, transparency/controls).
- Experience designing data rich products (large tabular data, charts and graphing, reporting)
- Engineering and code experience
Logistics:
- Compensation: $165K - $250K salary, $100K-200K equivalent in new hire equity (4 year vest)
- Location: New York City. We are a fully in-office team working out of Midtown Manhattan Monday through Friday. We allow for WFH days when anyone is traveling, but we do not allow for permanent remote work.
- Benefits:
- Generous health, dental, and vision insurance
- 401k with 3% automatic contribution (no vesting)
- Paid Lunches
- Wellness and Citi Bike benefit
