You'll work closely with cross-functional partners to design share-worthy experiences, social investing tools, and explore creative mechanisms that inspire first-time investors to start their investing journey.

  • Contribute to Stash's work culture, ethos, and relentless pursuit of incremental and continuous growth.
  • Elevate the craft and quality of product design by contributing to Stash's systems, design critique culture, and strategic roadmap.
  • Influence product direction in your vertical and contribute to the long-term vision for user-led growth, balancing performance metrics with seamless UX.
  • Enthusiasm for thoughtfully and ethically integrated AI experiences, staying informed on emerging patterns in AI interaction design across tech and finance, and contributing to innovation in this space.

What we're looking for:
  • A strategic thinker with a track record of delivering delightful, high-impact consumer experiences-ideally in mobile-first or B2C environments.
  • A visual storyteller with exceptional visual design skills-able to turn complex product ideas into clear, distinctive, and emotionally resonant interfaces that look as considered as they feel.
  • A behavior-aware problem solver who understands what motivates users to act, share, and return.
  • A collaborator who thrives at the intersection of product, engineering, and insights-and knows how to lead through influence.
