Product Designer
About Preql
Preql is building the AI-powered financial data platform for the modern enterprise. We're developing agentic AI workflows that help finance teams clean, transform, and structure their data without writing code. Think " Lovable.com for data pipelines" - just as website builders help users refine ideas into working apps, Preql helps users refine messy, fragmented financial data into production-ready workflows using natural language.
Our customers include media companies, media networks, retailers, and manufacturers who need reliable metrics and automated reporting. The company is backed by tier 1 venture firms and previous data company founders.
The Role
We're seeking a Product Designer to shape the user experience of our AI-powered platform. Working with the lead Product Manager and technical leadership, you'll make complex data transformation feel intuitive and trustworthy for finance teams. The role is initially part-time with flexibility to grow.
What You'll Design:
Conversational interfaces that make AI-powered data transformation feel as simple as chatting with a colleague while building sophisticated workflows behind the scenes
Interactive workflows where users refine data cleaning through natural language feedback and see results in real time
Dashboards and visualizations that surface transformation logic in terms finance teams understand and auditors trust
Design systems and component libraries that scale across web applications and integrations
Onboarding and education patterns that help non-technical users confidently adopt AI-powered tools
Key Responsibilities:
Own end-to-end product design from discovery through high-fidelity prototypes and production handoff
Conduct user research with finance teams to understand workflows, pain points, and mental models
Translate complex data operations into clear, approachable interfaces
Develop and maintain a coherent design system that balances speed with consistency
Collaborate closely with engineering to ensure design intent survives implementation
Participate in customer demos to observe user reactions and gather feedback firsthand
Iterate rapidly based on product specifications and real-world usage patterns
Requirements
4+ years of product design experience shipping web applications
Strong portfolio demonstrating complex workflows simplified into intuitive interfaces
Proficiency in modern design tools (Figma preferred)
Experience with interaction design, not just visual design-you think in flows and states
Ability to produce everything from rough wireframes to polished, production-ready specs
Strong Advantages
Nice-to-haves, but not strict requirements.
Data/Analytics Product Experience: Previous work on dashboards, data tools, BI platforms, or analytics products
AI/LLM Product Design: Experience designing for AI-powered features, conversational interfaces, or products with non-deterministic outputs
Enterprise Software: Understanding of enterprise UX patterns-audit trails, permissions, bulk operations, admin workflows
Financial Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with finance team workflows, accounting concepts, or fintech products
Front-End Familiarity: Ability to read code, prototype in HTML/CSS, or work directly in design-to-code tools
Founding Team Experience: Previous experience at early-stage startups where you wore multiple hats
What Makes This Role Special
You'll define the experience layer for a product that sits at the intersection of AI capabilities and critical business workflows. Finance teams are skeptical of AI for good reason-your work determines whether they trust it.
Impact: Your designs directly shape whether enterprise finance teams adopt AI for their most important data
Ownership: Small team means you own design end-to-end, not just one piece of a larger system
Learning: Hands-on experience designing for agentic AI-a problem space with few established patterns
Team & Culture
Small, focused team where your contributions have immediate impact. Direct exposure to customer feedback, rapid iteration cycles, and well-funded runway to build something significant.
