## Job description

## About Meadow

Meadow is the modern payments platform for higher education that simplifies the entire student financial experience. We're transforming the $600 Billion higher education payments industry in the United States — building for universities what Shopify built for retail businesses, and bringing the entire student financial experience online. The need for a platform like Meadow has never been greater. If you're passionate about our mission to empower students financially and strengthen economic mobility through higher education — and you're excited to join a highly ambitious, talented team — we'd love to hear from you.

## About the Role

## Overview

As a Product Designer at Meadow, you'll partner with other Product Designers, Product Managers, and Software Engineers to conceptualize and ship product that powers the student financial experience. Design at Meadow is AI-first and builder-led. We're looking for a Product Designer who is excited to 1) use AI as a core part of how they design — prototyping early, testing with real customers, and staying involved through launch and iteration, and to 2) design for AI — building products that assume the system can understand context, take initiative, and collaborate with the user.

## What You'll Do

- Own Product Work End-to-End: You'll work in lockstep with Product and Engineering to define problems, explore solution spaces, validate concepts, and ship product.
- Prototype Using AI Tools: You'll use Cursor and Claude Code to build and iterate on flows and interactions, then partner with Engineering to turn them into production-ready designs.
- Polish Validated Concepts Using Figma: You'll translate validated concepts into Figma for full state coverage, system alignment, and production readiness.
- Build Meadow's Product Design Practice: We're a small team of builders who thrive on ownership. As our second Product Designer, you'll help shape Product Design at Meadow from the ground up.

## About You

What Your Bring

- 4+ Years of Experience in Product Design
- Proven Success Owning Projects from Problem Definition → Launch & Iteration
- Proven Success Communicating & Collaborating with Engineering and Product
- Portfolio Showcasing Strong Product Thinking, Interaction Design, and Craft

What Makes You Stand Out

- Experience at an Early Stage Startup
- Experience in B2B SaaS, FinTech (or Other Systems-Heavy Environments)
- Active Use of AI Tools in Your Design Workflow (e.g. Claude Code, Cursor)
