This role is for a hands-on product design leader who thrives at the intersection of consumer-focused wealth planning, AI-enabled experiences, and scalable design systems.

You’ll lead design for a zero-to-one product portfolio while remaining deeply embedded in the work: shaping interaction models, designing critical flows, and partnering closely with Business, Engineering, and your Design Team colleagues.

  • Lead design for multiple new retirement planning applications, from early concept through launch and iteration

  • Envision experiences for both adults and children

  • Partner closely with business to frame problems, define MVPs, and balance user value with business goals

  • Collaborate with internal Engineering and external partners to ensure designs are technically feasible and data-accurate

  • Mentor and guide designers, providing clear direction, critique, and support while staying actively involved in execution • Advocate for user-centered design within a regulated, risk-aware banking environment

What we value

  • These skills will help you succeed in this role

  • Deep understanding of interaction design for both enterprise tools and consumer-facing products

  • Experience designing for enterprise, fintech, or regulated environments

  • Comfort translating ambiguous problem spaces into clear product direction

  • Ability to move fluidly between strategy and pixels—setting vision and designing key workflows

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to influence cross-functional partners

  • Familiarity with modern design tools and prototyping methods (e.g., Figma, prototyping libraries, experimentation)

Education & Preferred Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in product design, with experience leading complex, data-rich products

  • Degree in Design (Interaction, Graphic, Product), HCI, or related field a plus

  • Experience working within a large, regulated enterprise Additional optional requirements

  • Experience designing wealth management applications

  • Experience collaborating with AI/ML teams on production systems

  • Knowledge of accessibility standards for interfaces and data visualization
