About The Position

We believe every American household deserves access to counsel in life’s biggest moments. At Finch, we’re building the infrastructure to make justice radically more accessible. Our modern approach to consumer law automates the admin work and puts clients first, starting with personal injury. Since launching in April, we’ve grown 10x and are now powering pre-litigation for top law firms across the country. We combine expert operators with purpose-built AI to handle intake, claim opening, medical records, police reports, lien management, demands, and everything in between. We’re backed by Sequoia, Redpoint, and the founders & CEOs of generational companies like DoorDash, Ironclad, and Digits. We’re rebuilding how the law serves everyday Americans from first principles, and we’re hiring exceptional operators to help us scale it nationwide. This Role Finch Legal's product touches people at their most vulnerable — injured clients navigating a system they don't understand, legal teams under pressure to move fast, and law firm partners who need to trust what they can't always see. Design is how we make all of that feel human. You'll be our first design hire, with a direct line to leadership and a real say in how the product takes shape.
