Role
Who you are
- We are looking for a Lead Product Designer with 5+ years of experience to own and drive the product and design for our Consumer Banking team
- This role requires a deep understanding of financial products and the ability to craft intuitive, user-friendly banking experiences that enhance trust, usability, and engagement
- You have great instincts about what users want and how they think, but you aren’t afraid to get the data you need to make product decisions
- You’re a storyteller, both verbally and visually, and you can create insightful user stories and prototypes that align the team around product features
- You don’t just deliver mockups—you work with other teams to deliver a holistic user experience that encompasses technical logic, edge cases, accessibility, product marketing, and success metrics
- You’re not an engineer, but you know their lingo, and you have the chops to balance product scope with engineering effort
- You can work fast and loose if needed, but you also understand when process and structure are necessary, and you have ideas about how to implement them
- 5-8 years of experience in product design, with expertise in UX/UI for financial or fintech products
- Proven ability to simplify complex financial workflows and create intuitive experiences
- Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
- Expertise in Figma and industry-standard design tools
- Experience working cross-functionally with engineers, TPMs, Product Marketers, and GMs
- A strategic mindset, balancing business goals with user needs
Desirable
- Experience in banking, payments, or financial services
- Understanding of regulatory and compliance considerations in financial design
- Basic front-end knowledge (HTML, CSS, JS) for collaboration with engineering teams
What the job involves
- Reporting to: Head of Product Design
- Lead design efforts within the Consumer Banking team, shaping digital experiences for our customers
- Collaborate with engineers, TPMs, Product Marketers, and GMs to align design solutions with business objectives
- Apply strong UX and UI skills to enhance usability, security, and accessibility in financial products
- Utilize Figma (or relevant tools) to craft wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity UI designs
- Advocate for user-centric design, ensuring banking products are seamless, trustworthy, and easy to use
Our take
Millions of Americans participate in credit card programs that enable them to earn points from everyday spending. Bilt is a loyalty program that enables renters to earn points from what is typically their largest monthly outgoing: rent.
Landlords have long been unwilling to accept payment by credit card due to the high fees involved, an issue Bilt is tackling head-on. Within a few months of launching in mid-2021, Bilt was serving more than 2 million rental units. Whilst focusing on rent payments in the beginning, Bilt hopes to morph into an end-to-end service for renters looking to buy a home, which could eventually involve becoming a mortgage provider.
Bilt is targeting a lucrative market of 109 million renters in the US alone, with 4 million rental units using its platform. The company has secured impressive funding of more than $200 million led by General Catalyst Partners, which it is using to expand its Rewards Alliance programme - a partnership of multifamily, single family and student housing operators - alongside the local merchant focused Neighborhood Rewards program.
