Income inequality is rising and 1 in 4 Americans have $0 saved for retirement. We understand that most people want to take advantage of their employer benefits—like a 401(k) program or employee stock purchase program—but they might not be able to afford losing hundreds of dollars in paycheck deductions every month. That’s why we built Lendtable: We help our customers max out their benefits and give them the money to replace their contributions, so they can secure their financial future without losing the money they need for daily expenses. We are venture-backed by Y Combinator, Valor Equity Partners, Softbank, and heavy hitters like the former COO of Venmo and the President of Impossible Foods.

We are looking for a highly ambitious and experienced Product Designer to lead early-stage user research design and set the foundation for Lendtable’s design strategy and philosophy. In this role, you will work closely with our product, engineering, and growth teams to break down complex design problems and shape them into simple, intuitive and elegant solutions. You'll be responsible for designing a scalable system, defining guidelines, and building out the documentation to enable product teams across the organization to efficiently build our consumer-centered products. As an early member of the design team, you will play a critical role in shaping our customers’ journeys and constructing the objectives that drive our growth.
