We're passionate about democratizing wealth creation through education, advice, and products that help customers achieve greater financial freedom. As a Principal Product Designer, you'll help set direction for the customer experience, simplify complex problems, and drive quality through reviews, systems thinking, and close partnership with Product and Engineering.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in a fast-paced D2C product design environment.
- Strong principal-level IC craft: you're deeply hands-on, credible in the details, and capable of leading through influence rather than direct management.
- Player-coach mindset: while this is not a formal people management role, you naturally mentor and elevate other designers through collaboration, feedback, and example-setting.
- Senior product design leadership: strong end-to-end product sense, systems thinking, and a track record shipping great work with Product and Engineering in a fast environment.
- Intellectually curious and self-driven: you push into ambiguity, learn the domain, and move work forward without needing someone to script your week.
- Strong collaborator: Engineering, Product, and Marketing teams are excited to work with you. You build trust across functions and communicate design decisions with clarity and conviction.
- Extreme ownership mindset: you're a self-starter who raises the bar through your design craft and doesn't wait to be told what to do.
- Proven ability to make strategic decisions and hold a strong POV on what the product should look and feel like—and the communication skills to get others behind it.
- Experience using Figma and Jira as core tools of your workflow.
- Experience and genuine excitement about leveraging AI to improve design efficiency and process. At Stash, we use Claude Design and Cursor as part of our design workflow.
