[Remote] Senior Product Designer and Builder

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. LearnLux is the leading provider of workplace financial wellbeing, blending fiduciary digital planning with access to one-on-one guidance from Certified Financial Planner™️ professionals. As a Senior Product Designer & Builder, you'll own the entire product lifecycle, from early discovery and research through to polished UI and built-in-code prototypes, shaping how users engage with their financial lives.

Responsibilities

• Own the Full Design Loop. Move fluidly between rough sketches, functional prototypes, and high-fidelity flows. You take responsibility for the softer elements of design and UX: understanding mental models, brainstorming solutions, and rapid testing
• Lead Continuous Discovery. Run lightweight, ongoing user research. Recruit participants, conduct rapid tests, and synthesize qualitative signals into actionable product decisions. You maintain a continuous discovery cadence so the team always has fresh evidence to build on
• Use AI as a Force Multiplier. Use modern AI tools to accelerate your workflow: transcribing interviews, extracting themes, prototyping ideas, and turning qualitative data into clear insights. You treat AI as leverage, not a shortcut
• Shape the Roadmap. You won’t just execute on someone else’s vision. Use evidence-based conclusions to advocate for user needs, influence product direction, and ensure initiatives are followed through to implementation
• Build Shoulder-to-Shoulder. Work closely with engineering, analytics, product leads, and our co-founders. You’d rather hash things out in a live working session than leave comments in Figma for a week
• Evolve the Design System. Contribute to the LearnLux design system, creating reusable patterns that let the team move fast without sacrificing quality or visual consistency
• Push Toward Adaptive UX. Help evolve our product experience toward more personalized, intent-driven patterns. Bring a point of view on how AI can reshape the way users interact with financial planning tools

Skills

• 5+ years of experience in product design, ideally with exposure to fintech or complex B2B SaaS
• A builder mindset: a track record of shipping things beyond Figma files. Whether that's frontend code, AI-assisted prototyping tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex), or something else, you close the gap between design and production
• Research fluency: demonstrated ability to plan and conduct rapid user testing, draw insightful conclusions, and translate findings into product decisions
• AI maturity: you're comfortable experimenting with emerging tools to streamline research, prototyping, and synthesis
• Experience with research ops tools (e.g., Rally, User Interviews, Dovetail)
• A background in behavioral economics, individualized psychology, or localization/globalization
• Prior experience as a first design hire or working in a 0-to-1 environment

Benefits

• Remote-first company structure
• Medical, dental, and vision
• 401(k)
• Mental wellbeing (Talkspace)
• Financial wellbeing (LearnLux)
• Paid vacation and sick leave
• Paid sabbatical after 5 years of service
• A supportive, inclusive team culture
• Opportunities for continuous learning and growth at a fast-growing startup at the cutting edge intersection of financial wellness and technology
