About The Position

As a Product Designer at Numeral, you are accountable for outcomes, not artifacts. You will work with product managers, engineers, and designers to define problems in complex areas such as sales tax, VAT, GST, filings, and registrations, then ship product experiences that improve how finance and accounting teams operate. Design at Numeral is AI-first and builder-led. Work begins in an LLM, moves into tools such as Claude Code and Cursor to explore flows and interactions, and then into Figma for systems and polish. Designers prototype early, test with customers, and remain involved through launch and adoption. The role involves translating a complex, high-stakes, systems-heavy tax domain into experiences that feel straightforward. You will own product work end to end, use AI tools to clarify workflows and explore edge cases, conduct customer research, prototype against real product surfaces, prepare validated concepts for production, and contribute to shared design patterns and team craft.

Requirements

Experience as a product designer on complex products, ideally in B2B, fintech, accounting, or another systems-heavy environment.
Experience owning projects from problem definition through launch and iteration.
Active use of LLMs such as Claude or ChatGPT in a design workflow.
Comfort using Cursor or Claude Code, even without writing production code by hand.
A portfolio demonstrating product thinking, interaction design, and craft on dense, data-heavy surfaces.
Ability to work with product managers to define success metrics and adjust based on results.
Clear communication and comfort collaborating directly with engineers, product managers, and customers.

Nice To Haves

Experience planning and conducting customer interviews or usability tests with finance, accounting, or operations users.
Familiarity with design systems and extending shared components.
Comfort with front-end concepts such as components, states, and conditional logic.

Responsibilities

Own product work end to end, partnering with product managers and engineers to define problems, explore solutions, validate concepts, and ship improvements tied to key metrics.
Stay involved through product launch and iteration.
Use an LLM such as Claude to clarify ambiguous tax workflows, draft short PRDs, identify edge cases, and align with the team.
Conduct self-serve research by speaking directly with controllers, AP leads, and founders; run quick tests and use research to increase velocity.
Use Cursor and Claude Code to prototype and iterate on flows against real product surfaces, guiding structure, behavior, and UX quality while collaborating with engineers on what moves into the product.
Translate validated concepts into Figma, covering product states, system alignment, production readiness, and tax-specific edge cases.
Simplify the default experience by using the internal tax engine, Minerva, to handle underlying complexity where appropriate.
Share prompts, patterns, and learnings, and participate in critiques and reviews to raise craft across the team.
