Lead Designer Role

Kredit is looking for a Lead Product Designer to help build an easier way for people to resolve debts and improve their financial health.

You’ll be a core part of the founding team; creating the experience of new features, improving existing ones, and establishing the design team’s culture and processes.

The founders deeply care about working with humble people who understand and empathize with the financial difficulties that +70 million Americans face today.

• Research, prototype, and design new features
• Use research and data to iterate on existing features
• Contribute to high-level strategic decisions
• Design simple and intuitive experiences and flows
• Help define the short and long-term roadmap
• Regularly give and receive feedback on designs and strategic product decisions
• Build a design team, hiring and mentoring other designers
• Establish the beginnings of a design system

What you should have

• 5+ years experience designing and shipping digital products
• A portfolio showcasing your work and process
• Proficiency in Figma, Sketch, Illustrator, or other design tools
• Bonus points for experience designing financial services products (banking, insurance, payments, tax, etc.)
• Not sure if you qualify? We encourage you to apply.

Benefits

• Opportunity to join the Founding Team
• Health and dental coverage
• Unlimited PTO policy
