If you’re motivated by meaningful design work and love transforming customer insights into polished, impactful solutions, we’d love to hear from you!

• Express design decisions clearly, articulating trade-offs and rationale to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Balance consistency by aligning brand guidelines with macOS patterns to meet customer expectations.
• Enhance design systems by contributing to pattern libraries, visual standards, and reusable components.
• Collaborate effectively with product managers, engineers, and other stakeholders to deliver solutions that align user needs, business goals, and technical constraints.
• Iterate and refine your work through internal reviews and feedback from customers and team members.
• Balance time effectively, recognizing when to refine designs further and when to deliver solutions efficiently.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in product design with experience working on desktop, web and native experiences (preferably within the fintech space).
• Experience contributing to or managing design libraries or systems for product teams.
• Excellent communication skills to articulate design decisions, brainstorm ideas, and gather feedback from cross-disciplinary teams.
• Proficiency in design and prototyping tools like Figma.
• Experience conducting and analyzing remote usability tests.
• Familiarity with Apple’s design guidelines (macOS or iOS).
• A detail-oriented and problem-solving mindset.
• Strong analytical skills and critical thinking, with a commitment to delivering high-quality results.
• Passion for personal finance and a desire to create meaningful solutions that positively impact users' financial well‑being.
• Proficient knowledge of the capabilities and constraints of shipping features that work seamlessly within native Apple applications.
• Experience designing features that let people find insights in complex information.
• Proficiency using or building for personal financial management applications.
• Experience working with hybrid and remote colleagues.
• Competitive salary and performance bonus
