About this role

We believe great design is essential to building trusted financial products. Our customers rely on us to help them understand their cash flow, make financial decisions, and run their businesses with confidence. In this role, you’ll help design clear, intuitive interfaces for complex financial workflows—turning raw data, money movement, and financial controls into products that feel simple and reliable.

You’ll be a core contributor to the design of our fintech platform, working closely with product and engineering to shape how brand founders interact with their finances every day.

Responsibilities

  • Design end-to-end product experiences for financial workflows such as payments, financial workflows and controls

  • Translate complex financial concepts and customer needs into simple, intuitive, and trustworthy interfaces

  • Work closely with product and engineers to scope, iterate, and ship quickly

  • Collaborate with customers as needed to validate assumptions and refine designs

  • Contribute to shared design principles and patterns across the product

  • Help build a strong product and design culture through thoughtful collaboration

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience as a product designer, ideally on fintech, financial tools, or SMB products with a product-led growth approach

  • Comfort designing workflow-driven products; understanding (or interest in learning) of basic financial concepts as applied to SMB businesses

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across product, engineering, and business teams

  • Demonstrated ability to make thoughtful tradeoffs between clarity, usability, and scope in complex systems

You'll thrive at Highbeam if...

  • You love working in-person with a high-performing team

  • You enjoy working in an idea-meritocratic, low-ego environment

  • You are proactive and self-directed, and you excel in ambiguous, fast moving environments

  • You care about delivering a polished customer experience

  • Bonus: You have experience working in fintech, AI or early-stage startups

What we offer

  • Chance to join the founding team of a well-funded startup chasing a huge opportunity

  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity

  • Great location: Our NYC office is in NoHo, a short walk from the A,C,E · B,D,F,M · N,Q,R,W · 1 · 6 trains. Our Toronto office is downtown near Osgoode Station.

  • Generous PTO

  • Comprehensive health & benefits package
