Skills
About the role
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.
What you’ll do
Shape how AI-powered capabilities show up across complex financial workflows
Translate emerging technical capabilities into intuitive, human-centered experiences
Design systems that balance automation, transparency, and user control
Simplify technical and regulatory complexity into understandable workflows
Anticipate edge cases, failure states, and operational risks in high-stakes domains
Create scalable interaction patterns and escalation models for AI-assisted experiences
Prototype new interaction models and design detailed, high-quality product experiences
Partner closely with engineering, product, research, and data teams to ship thoughtful outcomes
What we're looking for
Thrive in ambiguity and enjoy shaping strategy and direction, not just executing requirements
Think in systems and workflows, not just individual screens
Have experience designing fintech, AI-powered, data-heavy, or workflow-driven products
Balance automation with transparency, trust, and user understanding
Prototype fluidly to explore both interaction logic and product craft
Care deeply about quality, correctness, and usability in high-stakes domains
Bring strong product judgment, communication skills, and ownership to your work
