My client's mission is to build a superhuman AI financial modelling product for executives worldwide . Financial models underpin every major business decision, yet the way they're built today is outdated and inefficient. Financial modelling is arguably the worst-tooled form of programming. There is a $100bn+ opportunity to change that-imagine a "Cursor for financial models." Company Overview Founded: 2024 Stage: Seed Funding: Recently raised $3m+ from tier-one US and UK venture capital firms Team: Elite product and engineering backgrounds spanning top-tier consultancies, AI scaleups, quantitative trading firms, and global competitions Traction: 5 paid pilots with global consultancies and private market funds, plus 500+ self-serve users, growing 50% month-on-month The Role: Founding Designer This is a rare opportunity to join as the first designer at a well-funded, fast-moving AI startup. You'll have the autonomy to set the design direction across the entire product and establish the design function from the ground up. The immediate priority is transforming an industry-leading spreadsheet add-in into a product that is not only functionally powerful but also beautiful, intuitive, and delightful to use . In the longer term, you'll lay the foundations for an AI-native financial modelling platform and play a pivotal role in scaling the design team. Responsibilities Lead the end-to-end design of the spreadsheet add-in, owning both UX and visual design. Develop wireframes, prototypes, user flows, and high-fidelity mockups. Establish and maintain a scalable, component-based design system. Conduct user research with early customers to deeply understand workflows, needs, and pain points. Collaborate closely with engineering and product teams to deliver high-quality features quickly. Contribute to the design vision for the future AI-native platform. Requirements Portfolio excellence in product design, UX, and visual design-ideally with complex, data-heavy B2B or SaaS products. Passion for AI-first products , with an understanding of their unique UX challenges and opportunities. High ownership mentality and a bias for action in fast-paced environments. Determination and creativity in solving complex user problems. Proficiency with modern design and prototyping tools (e.g., Figma). Experience working closely with engineers and product managers. Bonus: background in user research or usability testing. Why Join? Build at the frontier - design an AI-native product from first principles.
