Full Job Description

📋 Description

• This is a rare opportunity to be the first product designer at a seed-stage, AI-native fintech company building the future of global business identity and compliance (KYB — Know Your Business).
• You'll work directly alongside co-founders and engineers to shape design from the ground up — establishing culture, process, and a product experience that makes complex regulatory workflows feel effortless.
• This is a true zero-to-one, end-to-end ownership role.
• If you're energized by ambiguity, thrive in fast-moving environments, and want your design decisions to have immediate, visible impact, this role is for you.
• You'll drive the full design lifecycle — from ideation through implementation — across the platform, with an initial focus on data information architecture.
• You'll partner closely with product, engineering, and founders to define intuitive, agentic experiences for complex regulatory and compliance problems.
• You'll define and develop the company's design language and design system, building a scalable component library from scratch.
• You'll help shape how design functions as a discipline: establishing processes, tooling, values, and a design-driven culture.
• You'll collaborate directly with customers to validate and iterate on experiences that reduce friction in business onboarding and verification.

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years of product design experience (dealbreaker).
• Demonstrated experience designing for B2B SaaS products.
• Experience designing for regulatory, compliance, or highly technical domains — translating complex processes into intuitive user experiences.
• Portfolio with case studies showing end-to-end product design and measurable impact (required for consideration).
• Proficiency in Figma or equivalent design tools (e.g., Sketch, InVision) for rapid prototyping and design handoffs.

🏖️ Benefits

• Salary: $180,000 – $220,000 USD annually
• Early-stage equity opportunity as a founding team member
• High-impact, high-ownership role with direct access to leadership
