Job Description
Fabric by Gerber Life, the one-stop shop for parents to secure their family’s financial futures, is looking for a Senior Product Designer. Acquired by Western & Southern in 2022, we have the backing of a 130+ year-old company, balanced with the culture and velocity of a startup. This role will report to the VP of Design and Brand.
We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer who’s eager to help us create an engaging user experience for parents looking to invest for their children. The ideal candidate is someone who can problem solve, plan strategically, and think tactically as a partner with Product and Engineering. You’ll be able to drive the shape of the product with research and data while executing design work using wireframes, mockups, user journeys, and prototypes. You’ll advocate for design by articulating your rationale to create a unified, optimized user experience.
This role is 100% remote.
Role & responsibilities:
- Lead design for our kids investment account product, geared towards helping parents invest for their children while they’re still minors
- Own the end-to-end user experience from research and prototyping to final design hand-off
- Work with Product Management and Engineering teams to improve product engagement and retention
- Be an advocate for the customer—get to know our users through user testing and interviews, and know how to balance velocity without sacrificing user experience or design principles
- Identify problems and opportunities and develop hypotheses to test, learn, and iterate
To be successful in this role, you’ll need:
- 6+ years of experience as a key member of a design team with experience in 1-to-n improvements, specifically around engagement and retention
- Well-honed user-centered design skills—you are detail-oriented and have a deep understanding of design fundamentals and are fluent in Figma
- A strong understanding of usability, interaction design, visual design, front-end development, and mobile-first UX/UI
- Ability to understand and articulate the strategic impact of your design vision to stakeholders, and influence multi-disciplinary teams and partners across the organization
- Ability to work in an agile, dynamic work environment with a start-up mentality
- You’re a self starter and a critical thinker, able to break down complex problems into manageable tasks to deliver holistic design solutions
- Portfolio or samples of responsive web product design work informed by quantitative and qualitative user research
- A background in fintech or related industries is a plus
