Job description
Quoted in full from Clear Street's job posting. Gavroche does not edit it.
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.
