Principal Product Designer

Range • McLean, VA

2d • $100,000 - $200,000

About The Position

At Range, we’re building towards a world where anyone can live the financial life they imagine for themselves. We’re building AI-powered wealth management, consolidating investments, taxes, retirement, and estate planning into a single platform. We are backed by prominent investors and are experiencing rapid growth. This role is a building role where you will define what we build, why it matters, and how it comes to life, owning the product experience end-to-end and setting the standard for design across Range. Design at Range is AI-first and builder-led, utilizing tools like Lovable and Claude for rapid prototyping and iteration. You will translate validated concepts into Figma for full state coverage, system alignment, and production readiness. A critical aspect of this role is owning the evolution of our design system. Your designs will influence strategic decisions, and you will operate as a design leader, setting the bar for quality, speed, and product thinking at an organizational level, pushing the entire company to operate at a higher level.

Requirements

• 8+ years of product design experience, with a track record of defining product direction and shipping work that meaningfully moved the business.
• Track record of shipping end-to-end across web and mobile, from problem definition through launch and iteration.
• Deep Figma proficiency: component architecture, auto-layout, design tokens, prototyping, and structured file management.
• Comfort working in AI prototyping tools like Lovable or Claude, even if you're not writing production code by hand.
• Experience leading design across multiple product surfaces or teams, setting quality standards and ensuring coherence across a complex product.
• Experience shaping product strategy at the leadership level. You don't just influence what gets built on your team, you influence how the organization thinks about product and design.
• You're comfortable working alongside strong design leadership and contributing at that level, bringing your own point of view, taste, and standards to the table.

Nice To Haves

• Experience building or significantly evolving design systems that scaled with a product, defining component architecture, interaction patterns, and design principles
• Track record of mentoring and growing other designers, elevating their craft, judgment, and ability to operate independently
• Deep product sense. You identify the highest-leverage design investments and connect them to business outcomes. You've shaped product roadmaps, not just responded to them
• Experience with data visualization and complex information architecture
• Consumer or luxury product design experience
• Fintech or financial services experience, especially navigating regulatory and compliance constraints in the design layer
• Workflow UI, funnels, and onboarding flows
• Content management systems
• Experience at a company during a critical scaling phase. You helped define the culture, processes, and standards that carried the team from early stage to growth

Responsibilities

• Own the product experience end-to-end, from shaping ambiguous problems to shipping high-quality solutions and iterating in production.
• Act as a core product partner, shaping direction with PM and engineering, influencing what gets built (not just how), and driving clarity in ambiguous spaces.
• Set design direction across multiple product surfaces, ensuring coherence, quality, and a unified member experience as the product scales.
• Prototype rapidly using AI tools: Use Lovable and Claude to build, test, and iterate on flows and interfaces. Guide structure, behavior, and UX quality while AI accelerates your output.
• Bring work into Figma: Translate validated concepts into Figma for full state coverage, component definition, and production readiness. This is where you think through every state, edge case, and interaction pattern.
• Own and evolve the design system: Define component architecture, interaction patterns, and design principles. Manage and oversee organized design files and workspaces.
• Design for the 80/20: Encode judgment and complexity under the hood while keeping the default experience simple and delightful for members.
• Be a visual catalyst to drive momentum. Use prototypes, visuals, and product intuition to unblock decisions and move the team forward.
• Influence product strategy at the leadership level, shaping roadmaps and helping the organization think about what to build next, not just how to build it.
• Mentor and grow other designers, elevating their craft, judgment, and ability to operate independently.

Benefits

• 100% employer-covered medical insurance for employees (75% for dependents), plus dental and vision coverage
• Retirement savings program to support your future
• Time to reset and recharge + most federal holidays
• Comprehensive leave policy for growing families
• Select meals covered throughout the week
• Monthly movement stipend
• Early exercise eligibility and a strong focus on professional development
• Salary and equity refreshes based on performance
• After two years at Range, you can take time away to start your own company. We’ll hold your spot for 6 months - and pause your equity vesting, which resumes if you return
