Founding Product Designer
Welcome to Glide!
At Glide we’re reimagining the banking experience for the modern world. Our white label embedded fintech platform empowers legacy financial institutions, like community banks and credit unions, to pioneer novel digital experiences for their customers. You’ll be joining an all-star team with engineering, product, and growth experience from Stripe, Google, and Amazon. We’re bringing a new perspective to the decades-old financial world, and we’re hoping you can help us along the journey!
Our Design Philosophy
At Glide, design isn’t an afterthought. We believe it is our biggest product differentiator. You’ll transform complexity into confidence, creating products that feel simple without being simplistic. The work you design will be used by hundreds of thousands of users across the country.
What You’ll Do
- Own design for Glide’s core products across account opening, lending, and member servicing
- Translate complex financial workflows into clear, intuitive experiences
- Build and maintain Glide’s design system and visual language across product and marketing
- Partner with product, engineering, and go-to-market teams to ship fast, high-quality features
- Contribute to brand and visual design needs across web, campaigns, and presentations
- Bring clarity to ambiguity through prototypes, storytelling, and thoughtful craft
- Champion design excellence and help define Glide’s design culture as we scale
Who You Are
- Experienced designer: 4–6+ years of experience designing product experiences, ideally in early stage fintech or complex enterprise environments.
- Systems thinker: You see patterns and build reusable systems that scale, without losing craft or polish.
- Strong interaction and visual design chops: You obsess over clarity, typography, and visual hierarchy. You know how to make a dense form feel delightful.
- Customer-obsessed: You design with empathy, not assumptions. You find signal in feedback and know when to bend or push constraints.
- Startup mindset: You thrive in ambiguity, move quickly, and love ownership. You’re comfortable shipping v1s that evolve fast.

❤️ Wellbeing Credits (for US employees): Besides stellar health, dental, and vision insurance, we offer a $100 monthly health and wellness stipend to help you stay active and healthy!
🥗 Lunch on us (for US employees): We’re huge foodies, so every member of the Glide team received a $100 weekly stipend for lunch or groceries. No one goes hungry around here :)
🌴 Unlimited PTO and Sick Days: We trust our team to balance their responsibilities and well-being, so our unlimited PTO and sick day policy empowers everyone to take the time they need without unnecessary red tape.
💼 Hybrid Working Environment: We’re an actively expanding team, and in our Madison Square Park headquarters and are excited to grow an engaging in-office culture—ideally, our NYC-based team members will join us in the office three days a week to help make that vision a reality.
