Dave vs. Goliath. We’re Dave.
We believe everyone deserves access to their own money without predatory fees. Today, more than 12 million members use Dave to get cash when they need it, avoid overdraft fees, and stay in control of their finances. We’re profitable, publicly traded (NASDAQ: DAVE), and growing fast.
Now we’re building what’s next—and we’re hiring a Lead Product Designer to help take new ideas from zero to real features and products in members’ hands.
You’ll lead design for new products and feature iterations, turning ambiguous problems and emerging opportunities into clear, shippable experiences. You’ll partner closely with Product, Engineering, Research, and Growth to explore ideas, define direction, and launch products that can scale to millions of members.
No direct reports—but real leadership, real influence, and real responsibility for what gets built.
End-to-end design for new products and foundational features, from early exploration and concepting through launch and iteration
Discovery work that helps teams identify the right problems to solve—framing opportunities, testing assumptions, and shaping product direction early
Design direction for new initiatives with the potential to become major product lines
Experiences that balance speed, clarity, and trust, especially in moments where members are making important financial decisions
Product strategy alongside Product and Engineering, contributing to goals, success metrics, roadmaps, and sprint commitments
Clear design narratives that help cross-functional teams align, make trade-offs, and move forward with confidence
Mentorship and craft guidance for other designers, helping raise the bar for early-stage thinking and execution
You’ll help define Dave’s future product portfolio. The work you lead will determine which ideas make it to market, how members experience them for the first time, and which products earn trust and long-term adoption. Your decisions will shape both member outcomes and Dave’s next phase of growth.
Experience and skills
8+ years of product design experience in fintech or other scaled consumer product environments
Strong experience taking products or major features from idea to launch
A portfolio that demonstrates 0 → 1 thinking, strong craft, and the ability to evolve ideas over time
Deep expertise in mobile app design
Strong visual design sensibility paired with practical UX judgment
Fluency in Figma and modern design workflows
Clear, confident communication with Product, Engineering, Research, and other cross-functional partners
Bonus
Experience designing financial products with ongoing member relationships (credit, banking, subscriptions, or similar)
Exposure to products serving gig workers or people with non-traditional income
You’re comfortable starting from a blank page. You know how to turn ambiguity into structure, ask the right questions early, and help teams converge on the best direction. You connect design decisions to strategy and outcomes, not just aesthetics.
You lead through influence. You collaborate closely with cross-functional partners, communicate clearly, and help teams make thoughtful trade-offs as constraints and data evolve. You raise the quality of the work around you through feedback, mentorship, and strong design judgment.
You’ll have wide scope, early ownership, and the chance to shape products before they’re fully defined. We move quickly, learn fast, and iterate based on what we see in the real world. If you’re excited by 0 → 1 work, autonomy, and building products that materially improve people’s financial lives, this role is for you.
Build new products from the ground up for millions of members
Shape the future of financial access at a profitable, growing public fintech
Partner with strong product, engineering, and research teams who value design
Grow as a senior IC with room to expand scope over time
Competitive compensation, meaningful equity, comprehensive benefits, and flexible PTO
