Our products live inside highly regulated, high-stakes environments where accuracy, trust, and explainability matter as much as speed. We design for complex systems, real operators, and long-term impact—not flashy demos. ## The Role We’re looking for a Senior Product Designer who thrives in complexity. You’ll lead design across core product areas, turning messy workflows, legacy systems, and regulatory constraints into clear, usable, and trustworthy experiences. This is a hands-on role with real ownership and influence over product direction. You’ll work closely with the co-founders, product managers, and engineers to shape how banks and credit unions interact with AI workflow agents, often for users who are not technical, but domain experts. ## What You’ll Do - Own end-to-end design for major product surfaces: discovery, flows, interaction models, and visual systems - Design interfaces for enterprise software and complex, multi-step workflows - Translate banking and operations requirements into intuitive user experiences - Collaborate with PMs to define problems, scope solutions, and make trade-offs - Work closely with engineering to ensure high-quality execution - Design for trust, transparency, and control in AI-driven systems - Create and maintain design systems, patterns, and documentation as the product scales - Participate in user research, usability testing, and iterative refinement with real customers ## What We’re Looking For - 6+ years of product design experience, with significant time in enterprise or B2B software - Proven experience designing complex systems (e.g. dashboards, workflows, admin tools, regulated products) - Ability to understand and synthesize user problems - Strong interaction design and information architecture skills - Experience working closely with engineering in fast-moving product teams - Ability to balance user needs, technical constraints, and business goals - Comfortable designing for ambiguity and evolving requirements - Strong portfolio demonstrating problem-solving depth, not just visual polish ## Nice to Have - Experience in fintech, banking, payments, or regulated industries - Experience designing AI-powered or automation products - Familiarity with data-heavy interfaces and operational tooling - Experience contributing to or leading a design system ## About Saris ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Saris develops AI workflow agents that automate back-office lending, compliance, and operational tasks for banks and credit unions. - **Entity Type**: Private (Pre-Seed, closed October 2023) - **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, USA - **Founded**: 2024 - **Founders**: Danial Jameel (CEO), James Dang (Co-Founder), Alice (Co-Founder) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Banking & Financial Services, Enterprise AI / Automation - **Target customers**: B2B – Banks (including top 10 U.S. banks) and credit unions of all sizes - **Mission**: “Create the future of work in financial services” – help institutions serve their communities better by giving employees AI-powered leverage, replacing repetitive work with human + AI collaboration. ## Products & Services - **Saris AI Workflow Agents** – A platform that integrates with existing core banking, loan origination, document repositories, and communication tools.

Also delivering measurable ROI for a credit union’s HELOC team (2.5 hours saved/employee/day, avoiding three new hires). ## Competitive Advantages - **Purpose-built for financial services**: Integrates securely with legacy banking systems and meets strict compliance/audit requirements. - **Minimal engineering needed**: “White-glove” deployment and optimization; bank teams don’t need to write code or learn new interfaces. - **Guaranteed ROI**: Published average results (300% productivity, 9.8x cost reduction) backed by real case studies. - **Tier 1 VC backing & research pedigree**: Founders and team have published research, hold patents, and have experience at tier-1 venture-backed companies. ## Strategic Focus - Continue scaling the platform to automate more back-office functions (lending, compliance, operations) across banks and credit unions. - Expand integrations with additional core systems and data sources. - Grow the team and deepen presence in existing offices (San Francisco, Canada, Qatar) to support institutional deployments. ## Why Work Here - **Mission-driven**: “Support the backbone of the US economy & community” – work that directly improves how financial institutions serve their communities. - **Culture highlights**: “High performance + high care” – a high bar for output combined with mutual support.
