About the Role

The Company is seeking a Head of Product Design to take on a pivotal role in the development of a modern platform that integrates data, liquidity, and complex financial workflows. The successful candidate will be responsible for owning the design process from start to finish, with a focus on creating intuitive and high-quality user experiences that resonate with sophisticated institutional customers. This includes translating intricate financial concepts into clear and elegant design solutions, as well as building and evolving a cohesive design system across product, marketing, and brand. The role demands a strong product thinker with a high level of craft in UX, UI, and visual design, and experience in data-heavy products, particularly in the fintech, SaaS, or marketplace sectors, is highly valued. Applicants for the Head of Product Design position at the company should have a minimum of 6 years' of product design experience, with a preference for those who have worked in early-stage startup environments. The role requires a lead IC who is also eager to grow into a design leadership position, and the ideal candidate will be fast-moving, high-agency, and comfortable with ambiguity. Collaboration is key, so a low-ego, and a collaborative approach, particularly in working closely with engineers and founders, is essential. The Head of Product Design will have a direct line to the company's co-founders, making this a unique opportunity to influence product direction, UX decisions, and overall company strategy. The company values a high-ownership environment where product quality and user experience are paramount, and the role offers the chance to make a significant impact in a high-velocity, real-stakes setting.
