About the Role

As a Senior Product Designer at Rho, you will champion the craft of design to deliver experiences that are not only functional but thoughtfully refined. You’ll take end-to-end ownership of complex product areas, consistently holding a high bar for usability, visual polish, and quality of execution. With an instinct for user behavior and a relentless attention to detail, you'll bring clarity to ambiguous problems and advocate for the end user in every decision. Working closely with product and engineering partners, you'll lead the creation of intuitive solutions that feel seamless, scalable, and rooted in empathy—ensuring every design moment reflects Rho's commitment to frictionless finance.

Responsibilities

  • Lead design efforts for end-to-end product features across multiple surfaces

  • Uphold and evolve design quality by considering both micro-interactions and holistic experience.

  • Communicate ideas clearly across design critiques, cross-functional meetings, and stakeholder reviews.

  • Contribute to design system enhancements and advocate for design quality across teams.

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience designing digital products, with a portfolio demonstrating end-to-end ownership. Fintech experience preferred but is not necessary

  • Skilled in prototyping, UI/UX, interaction design, and visual polish.

  • Proven ability to work autonomously, plan work, and push projects forward independently.

  • Comfortable designing for ambiguity, resolving complex workflows, and simplifying edge cases.

  • Strong collaboration and communication skills; experience presenting to executives and external partners.

  • Familiar with applying qualitative and quantitative research methods to inform decisions.
