Product Designer, Onboarding

Flex is a growth‑stage, NYC headquartered Fin Tech company that is creating the best rent payment experience. It’s hard to believe that it’s 2026 and paying rent on time is expensive, inflexible, and difficult. We’re here to change that! Flex enables our users to pay rent throughout the month on a schedule that better fits their finances and budget. Our mission is to empower as many renters as possible with flexibility over their most significant recurring expense.

After deliberately keeping a stealth profile as we built up unprecedented investor support and an enthusiastic user base, we are looking for motivated individuals to help us keep our mission growing. Will you be a part of the team?

As a Staff Product Designer at Flex, you’ll solve problems for consumers across the country who are underserved by existing financial products. Flex is growing extremely fast and we’re taking big swings to overhaul our consumer experience. As we enter the next chapter of our growth we are looking for a design leader who will drive forward onboarding and activation for new customers.

You’ll own projects from end‑to‑end, from developing a vision for where we’re heading to exploring opportunities, and ultimately delivering solutions that improve the lives of Americans experiencing financial hardship. All of your design skills will be put to use, from design thinking to interaction design and visual design. But you won’t do this alone! You’ll work alongside product managers, software engineers, and data analysts, with feedback and support from your fellow designers.

This is a hybrid position with on‑site expectations in our New York Headquarters or San Francisco/ Bay Area Office, 2‑3 days per week depending on location. For candidates outside of a required location, you may be eligible for our relocation assistance program.

• Lead design for the onboarding experience, accounting for multiple different customer profiles and channel entry points

• Be steeped in your team’s customer and business goals, to inform how you prioritize work to drive the most impact
• Solicit feedback from and provide feedback to designers and collaborators across the core renter experience teams in order to maintain high quality and consistency in our work
• Care deeply for and lead by example by setting the standard for high quality craft through your approach to interaction design, prototyping, and visual design choices
• Contribute to our Design System, Ultraviolet, by aligning it with industry best practices and evolving our patterns to scale a modern, polished user experience

• Comfort with ambiguous problems
• Motivation to be a self‑starter
• Passion for improving every day people’s financial well‑being
