About Finster AI

• Finster AI is a Series A-stage company building an AI-native platform for research and process automation at financial institutions.

• They deliver end-to-end solutions, including presentation decks, for some of the world’s largest banks.

• Their product is designed for institutional investors, with accuracy, reliability, and privacy at the core.

About the Team

• Founded by former Google DeepMind and Meta AI leaders.

• Team members have previously worked at Morgan Stanley, J.P. Morgan, Rothschild & Co, Aviva Investors, Visible Alpha, and Revolut.

• ~25-person team primarily based in London and an office in New York.

• You’ll be the sole senior IC Product Designer in close partnership with Finster’s Head of Experience.

What you are expected to do:

• Shape the UX of Finster AI’s AI-powered financial research platform, designing interfaces that make complex data and workflows context-aware, timely, intuitive and trustworthy.

• Use AI tools to increase design velocity and exploration without replacing critical thinking.

• Collaborate with product owners, engineers, and stakeholders to translate requirements into user flows, wireframes, and high-fidelity designs for a complex, data-heavy web application.

• Iterate on designs based on user feedback, product data, and technical constraints, balancing usability, clarity, and feasibility.

• Maintain and evolve the design system to ensure consistency, scalability, and efficiency across the product.

What you need to succeed:

• 3+ years of product design experience maintaining design systems, including components, patterns, and documentation.

• Familiarity with accessibility standards and a commitment to building inclusive, usable interfaces.

• Ability to be clever, creative and curious about the implementation of AI in a highly-regulated and high risk industry.

• Ability to clearly articulate design decisions and rationale to designers, engineers, and business stakeholders. Excellent communication and collaboration skills are a must.

• Strong problem-solving skills, especially in complex, data-heavy applications; high attention to detail.

• Web experience is required (the product is web-based, though a mobile app is planned).

• Comfortable using AI tools in your design workflow (designing AI products is a plus, but not a prerequisite).

• Data- and UX-driven approach to decision making.

Nice-to-haves:

• Interest or experience in AI/ML-driven interfaces (e.g. conversational UIs, recommendation systems, data visualisation for AI outputs).

• Interest or background in fintech, financial services, or personal finance tools.

• Familiarity with agile development methodologies and collaborating in sprint-based workflows.

• Experience with user research methodologies and data analysis (e.g. planning and synthesizing user interviews or usability tests).

• Understanding of regulatory/compliance considerations in financial products (clarity, trust, data transparency).

What you get:

• High-impact design role: Shape the UX of an AI platform used by Tier 1 investment banks and asset managers.

• Ownership and autonomy: Work directly with the Head of Design and Head of Product, owning key product areas end to end.

• Exceptional team: Collaborate with colleagues from DeepMind, Meta AI, Morgan Stanley, J.P. Morgan, Revolut, and other leading companies.

• Growth opportunities: Significant room for growth in scope and responsibility as the company and product scale.

• Competitive package: £80–120K base compensation (flexible and competitive) plus equity.

• Benefits and time off: 25 days PTO plus bank holidays, healthcare and dental package.

• Hybrid work: London preferred (New York possible for exceptional senior candidates); minimum 2 days per week in the office.
