Senior Product Designer - Accounting Systems
About The Position
In the early 1900s, Maria Montessori redesigned education by creating environments that guided learners toward independence. Instead of overwhelming people with instruction, she built structured systems that supported progress through clarity, momentum, and gradual mastery. At Mercury, we’re exploring how intelligent systems can bring that same sense of structure and confidence to complex financial workflows. We’re hiring a Senior Product Designer to help define and design a next-generation AI-powered experience within Mercury’s accounting ecosystem. This is a foundational role focused on turning sophisticated automation and domain logic into experiences that feel intuitive, reliable, and empowering. Mercury is a fintech company, not an FDIC-insured bank. Banking services provided through Choice Financial Group and Column N.A., Members FDIC.
