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.
