Job description

The role asks for a designer who can take messy, high-stakes financial workflows and turn them into clear products, from early discovery through to polished interfaces. A strong candidate has designed for expert users in fintech, enterprise software, or data-heavy tools, and can handle edge cases, error states, and dense information. They also work closely with product, engineering, and domain experts and can explain their reasoning to bring others along.

How it fits the AI era

AI changes the work by speeding up research, prototyping, and testing ideas, and by adding a new design problem: showing users where an AI answer came from and how far to trust it. The human part stays central, including judgment about what users need, how much control they should have, and when a result is reliable enough to act on. Designers here shape how professionals work with model outputs, not just how screens look.

How it builds AI experience

The role offers hands-on practice designing interfaces for AI-generated insights on credit data, documents, and deals, plus work on feedback loops that help improve those features in production. To build this experience beforehand, a candidate can prototype a small AI tool for a data-heavy task, such as summarising long financial documents with clear source links and confidence cues. Writing up the trade-offs made around trust and user control would show the right thinking.

Worth showing

• Designing for expert, high-stakes users
• AI interface trust patterns
• Fast prototyping with AI tools
• Design system contributions
