Senior Product Designer — Trading

Job description

Clear Street Active is a new retail trading product. Equities, options, futures, crypto, prediction markets. We're building it with a small team, and we need a product designer who knows trading well, not just the UX conventions but what traders actually care about and where existing tools fall short. This role owns the core trading surfaces: research, order entry, position management, portfolio. You'll work directly with engineers and PMs, prototype in the real codebase, and be in the room when product decisions get made. **What you'll do** - Own product design across the trading surfaces, from flow-level decisions down to the micro-interactions that matter when someone is mid-trade - Prototype in the real codebase using AI tooling. Figma alone isn't enough here. - Work within the design system as it gets built, and flag where it needs to grow - Be in the room when product decisions happen and have real opinions about them **What we're looking for** - Has shipped retail trading products with real users: equities, options, futures, crypto, some meaningful combination. If you haven't designed for people making real trades with real money, this probably isn't the right fit. - Understands trading mechanics well enough to have strong opinions about where current products get it wrong - Strong craft and taste. The work should look considered. - Mobile is expected, not optional. This isn't a desktop-only product. - Can prototype in the real codebase using AI tooling. Not expected to write production code, but Figma alone isn't enough. - High autonomy. You'll set your own direction and course-correct when you're wrong. - No ego **Nice to have** - Background at a consumer fintech with a strong design culture - Options or derivatives UX specifically - Has worked on or contributed to a design system This is a small team. Everyone is building, giving feedback, and in the work together, not siloed by function.
