Lead Designer

Fincent is a new age finance firm whose mission is to bring financial and accounting services into the modern era. We like to think of ourselves as all of the good parts of a startup, without the downsides. We're a tight-knit team of smart, friendly people solving problems together with a shared passion for design, technology and creativity. Fincent stands at the intersection of neo-banking and SaaS and aims to be a complete financial hub for SMBs. We offer an AI-powered finance team with a real-time dashboard to manage all the finance functions for your business on one platform – banking, bookkeeping, yearly taxes, bill pay & invoicing, financial projections & budgeting, reimbursements and more.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Lead Designer who brings both strategic thinking and exceptional craft to the table. As a design leader, you'll drive the user experience and visual direction across Fincent’s product and marketing efforts. You’ll work closely with product managers, engineers, marketers, and leadership to deliver a cohesive, elegant experience across all touchpoints.

This is a high-impact role that will define the design language, mentor younger designers, and build the foundation for a strong design culture at Fincent.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and own the design vision and execution across product and brand.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to turn business goals into elegant, user-centered experiences.

• Establish and maintain a consistent design system across web and mobile platforms.

• Set quality standards and ensure design consistency, accessibility, and usability.

• Conduct user research, synthesize findings, and turn insights into actionable design solutions.

• Champion a strong design culture across the company.

What We’re Looking For

• 10+ years of experience in product design, with at least 3+ years in a lead or senior role.

• A strong portfolio that demonstrates depth in interaction, visual design, and product thinking.

• Experience working in fast-paced, early-stage product environments.

• Mastery of design tools like Figma (we live in it), and familiarity with prototyping tools.

• Excellent communication and presentation skills—you can clearly articulate your design decisions.

• Strong understanding of user experience principles, information architecture, and systems thinking.
