Role overview
Autopilot is building a high-performance, AI-native Fintech Operating System designed to optimize cost and revenue for digital businesses. As a Product Designer, you'll own product experiences end-to-end and help redefine what great UX means in a complex, data-driven industry — designing how fintech works, not just screens.
Responsibilities
- Translate complex financial logic and backend systems into intuitive user flows
- Design dashboards, workflows, and visual systems for payments, orchestration, and automation
- Build and maintain our scalable design system in Figma (aligned with React components)
- Collaborate with engineers on real-world UX states — success, failure, pending, retry
- Prototype and validate features with real data and user context
- Participate in product discussions, shaping user journeys before pixels are drawn
- Uphold usability and domain accuracy as the standard for design quality
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience designing digital products with complex logic (fintech, B2B SaaS, or data-heavy systems preferred)
- Strong product and systems thinking — you design for states and workflows, not just screens
- Deep Figma expertise (Auto Layout, Variants, Tokens, Components)
- Ability to translate backend logic, APIs, and data models into coherent user experiences
- Excellent communication and documentation skills (Linear, Figma, Slack)
- Comfortable working directly with engineers and iterating quickly without handoffs
Nice to have
- Experience in fintech, payments, or compliance-related products
- Exposure to analytics or developer tooling
- Understanding of design-to-code workflows (React component parity, tokens)
- Strong interaction or motion design craft (Framer, ProtoPie, etc.)
Benefits
- Help build an ambitious product from the ground up
- Founding design role with strong emphasis on product logic, systems thinking, and end-to-end collaboration with engineers
- Team that values speed, craft, and autonomy
- Opportunity to make an outsized impact in fintech
Additional details
- Multi-year mission to build smarter infrastructure for commerce
- Fast-moving team building modern, data-intensive web applications that help digital businesses operate more intelligently
- Hiring process: Apply with LinkedIn Profile and Resume → 90-Minute Live Design Collaboration session → Design Review & Feedback → Culture & Alignment Chat with CEO
- Hiring process focuses on real-world collaboration, not design showreels
- 90-minute live design collaboration: work with product and engineering team on a small feature challenge from user problem to Figma prototype
- Session evaluates: how you think through logic and flows, how you translate constraints into UX decisions, your interaction/hierarchy/state management, and how you communicate trade-offs and rationale
- Session mirrors actual workflow: accessible, pragmatic, collaborative
