We believe capital is one of the most powerful tools for shaping the world - and more people should be putting it to work. Our mission is to make it radically easier to raise and deploy capital, so that anyone, anywhere, can back the companies and ideas they believe in.\nOur first product is a full-stack platform for launching and running private investment firms - think Shopify for VC and PE. We handle all the infrastructure: from legals and investor onboarding to KYC/AML, payments, tax, reporting, and exits.\nWe're already trusted by over 10,000 angels, VCs, and founders. We administer over $500m in assets, covering investments from pre-seed to series E. This includes household names like ElevenLabs, OpenAI, SpaceX, xAI, Anduril, etc. but also new companies creating everything from synthetic brains to small nuclear reactors.\n\nMission\nWe're looking for a senior design leader who combines exceptional visual craft with systems-level product thinking. You'll play a central role in defining and elevating the customer experience at Odin as we prepare for a major US launch.\nThe scope here is intentionally broad. Your remit spans across product and visual brand identity. You'll help evolve our brand identity alongside the founders, expressing the philosophy, ambition and cultural stance of a company that is rethinking what progress means and how we get there.\nWorking with our existing designer, our Head of Product and the wider product team, you'll help set the design direction for the company, raise the quality bar and shape how design operates as we grow. You'll bring experience and conviction to make strong design decisions quickly, while creating the systems, practices and feedback loops that allow consistently excellent work to scale.\nYou'll remain close to the work: exploring complex problems, building and testing prototypes, speaking directly with customers and translating what you learn into polished, production-ready experiences. You won't be stepping into a finished structure. You'll be helping to shape the next stage of it.\nYour remit spans both product and brand. You'll turn complex, regulation-heavy workflows and dense interfaces into experiences that feel clear, intuitive and inevitable.\n\nYour Must-Have Qualities\nWe value designers who combine rigorous reasoning, high agency, exceptional craft and deep customer empathy. You'll succeed in this role if you are:\nDeeply user-centric: You advocate for the customer and care about how people experience the product. You use interviews, data and observation to understand real behaviour-not just what users say.\nExceptional in your craft: You have a highly developed eye for composition, hierarchy, interaction and detail. You create polished, cohesive experiences and hold the shipped product to a very high standard.\nReasoned and curious: You challenge assumptions, ask sharp questions and look for root causes rather than applying surface-level fixes.\nDecisive with strong judgment: You make thoughtful trade-offs between speed, quality, complexity and compliance. You explore enough to make an informed decision, form a clear point of view and move quickly.\nHigh agency: You don't wait for perfect information or detailed direction. You identify what needs to happen, bring others with you and take responsibility for moving the work forward.\nSystematic about discovery: You build repeatable ways of learning from customers, test assumptions early and establish regular feedback loops rather than treating research as a one-off stage.\nClear and collaborative: You articulate your thinking simply, write clearly and give engineers the context and detail needed to build what was intended. You debate constructively, respond well to feedback and operate with conviction without ego.\nComfortable with complexity and ambiguity: You create structure from incomplete information and navigate technical, regulatory and operational constraints without losing momentum.\nOutcome-driven: You care about what happens after something ships. You measure impact and ensure your work genuinely improves the customer experience, business outcomes or operational efficiency.\n\nYour Experience\n\nMust-Have\n8+ years of product design experience, with a strong track record of shaping complex products end to end.\nExperience as an early or senior designer within a high-growth product team.\nIn-house experience, with ownership of complete customer journeys rather than isolated screens.\nA portfolio demonstrating exceptional visual design, polished production-ready UI and measurable business or customer impact.\nStrong information architecture, interaction design and prototyping skills.\nThe ability to produce high-quality work at pace, make confident visual decisions and maintain a consistently high bar across the product.\nStrong systems thinking, with experience designing complete workflows spanning user actions, communications, automations, permissions, operational processes and technical constraints.\nExperience designing complex, multi-party products or working within regulated environments.\nThe ability to independently lead discovery, including customer interviews, assumption validation, prototyping, usability testing and iteration.\nExperience establishing structured, repeatable customer-research and feedback practices.\n\nThe Hiring Process\n Interview with Imani, our Head of People & Talent - In this session, you'll unpack the role and learn more about us, while she ensures you're the right fit for the position (30-45 mins).\n Interview with Mary, our Co-CEO & Co-Founder - During this initial interview, we'll touch on topics like culture, values, and your experience to see if there's alignment on both sides (60 mins).\n Live Workshop with Mary and Laurits, our Head of Product - This session will focus on your product and systems thinking. (90 mins)\nLive Workshop with Mary and Laurits - This is where we assess visual craft with a narrowly scoped, UI-focused task. (90 mins)\n Trial Day (Paid) - We'd like to make an offer, but want to ensure that you experience working with us in a real-world setting and get a feel for our team dynamics and processes. This trial allows both sides to see if the fit is right before making a long-term commitment, ensuring mutual success. We'll fly you to the UK to meet the team in-person.\n\nOur process typically runs over two weeks. We share detailed feedback within 24 hours of each interview stage and aim to line up next steps quickly so momentum isn't lost.\n\nSalary\n\nThe salary band for this role is $154k-$194k + equity options\n\nWorking at Odin\nThis role is based in New York, working closely alongside one of our founders and the commercial team we're building in the US, while collaborating closely with the rest of the team in the UK. The speed and intensity we operate at make in-person collaboration important, and we expect at least three days per week in the office.\n\nBenefits\nMedical, dental, vision, 401(k), life insurance and disability cover\nYour own wellness, learning and equipment budgets\nCompany card from day one\n33 days of flexible \"All-in\" PTO\nEnhanced fully paid parental leave\nPaid sick leave\nWork from anywhere for up to 6 weeks each year","description_format":"text","description_chars":7277,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":8,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Life insurance","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Financial Software & Embedded Finance","Angel Networks & Startup Accelerators"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-08-21T20:14:08Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"GB","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"Licensed UK visa sponsor (Skilled Worker)","filings_12m":null,"filings_prev_12m":null,"green_card_filings_12m":null,"median_offered_wage_usd":null,"route":"Skilled Worker","cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-17T06:21:15+00:00","sources":["UK Home Office: register of licensed sponsors (workers)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":11,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":0.4,"p_active":0.627,"p_room":0.45,"age_days":56,"expected_fill_days":29,"reasons":["seen:56","velocity","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-17T05:46:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":195000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/joinodin-founding-product-designer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/joinodin-founding-product-designer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-18T12:21:29Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":18286,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-19T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3822},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3822"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fjoinodin-founding-product-designer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fjoinodin-founding-product-designer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fjoinodin-founding-product-designer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/joinodin-founding-product-designer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fjoinodin-founding-product-designer"}]}
