About the role

  • Shape the core platform and create seamless, delightful experiences for people researching, managing, insuring, and leveraging their alternative-asset portfolios.
  • Drive user-centric thinking: Bring a high-craft, systems-oriented approach to problem-solving, experimentation, and raising the bar for simplicity, clarity, and usefulness across the company.
  • Navigate ambiguity: Break down open-ended problems, ruthlessly prioritize for impact, and align cross-functional teams around the path forward.
  • Operate across altitudes: Work on loosely defined concepts as well as tightly scoped, tactical deliverables with equal skill.
  • Turn insight into action: Conduct research, synthesize findings, and translate them into clear design directions. Dive into data, run experiments, and uncover the 'what, why, and how' behind user behavior so we deliver outcomes, not just features.
  • Elevate the craft: Lead and participate in design reviews, provide clear and actionable feedback, and contribute to a culture of high standards by showing through doing.
  • Champion AI-first design: Design for and with LLMs, automation, and context-aware systems. Translate emerging capabilities into intuitive, delightful product experiences and help ensure Alt’s offering stays meaningfully ahead of competitors.
  • Collaborate deeply: Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Sales, and other stakeholders to understand constraints, align on requirements, and deliver thoughtful, creative solutions.
  • Grow the Design System: Spend ~20% of your time evolving and maintaining the Alt Design System, and 80% designing core features across the product.
