About the Role We're launched homegrown financial health and wellness education platform, and we're looking for a digital Product Designer to help take it from MVP launch to a mature tool. As an individual contributor, you'll create dev-ready screens, work closely with our development team, and keep shipping enhancements. Reporting to the Director of Product Design, you'll focus on detailed design to production handoff. This includes taking features from through detailed, high-fidelity, dev-ready screens, then staying with them through build and QA so what ships matches what was designed. You'll support a continuous roadmap of new features and enhancements across web and mobile, helping people understand and improve their financial health. ________________________________________ What You'll Do Detailed design and handoffs Take features to built screens: flows, high-fidelity UI, states, edge cases, responsive breakpoints, and annotated specs that are ready for development. Package designs so engineers can build without guessing: component usage, interaction notes, content, and accessibility annotations. Build and extend the platform's design system. Use and extend shared components and patterns so screens are consistent, scalable, and fast to build. Own visual and design QA. Review implementations, log defects, and partner with engineers to resolve them before release so we ship what we intended. Support the roadmap after MVP launch Support a continuous roadmap of new features and enhancements across concurrent sprints. Design new modules and tools that build on the MVP foundation (e.g., new learning content and formats, calculators and assessments, progress and goal tracking). Work from analytics, user feedback, and research to prioritize fixes and enhancements; translate findings into designs that move the numbers. Keep specs, documentation, and pattern libraries current as the product grows so the team can move faster with each release. Drive design delivery in an agile context Partner with Product Managers, Engineers, and Content to shape sprint plans (refinement, sprint planning, and retros) and keep design ahead of development. Manage your workload across concurrent sprints, balancing near-term production work with design for upcoming enhancements. Respond quickly to questions during build, unblock engineers, and make pragmatic tradeoffs without compromising quality. Ship for outcomes, not output Track experience outcomes after launch (e.g., task completion, engagement, content completion, return visits, and user satisfaction) and use them to shape enhancements. Advocate for the customer in cross-functional discussions, using evidence to align stakeholders on the right problems to solve. Contribute to a culture of design quality by sharing work in critiques, documenting patterns, and helping raise the bar for the broader team.
