## About the role

This is a leadership role, empowering a team of Product Designers. And, as the first Design Leader for Gusto's Banking team, you'll lead design across two products at different stages of maturity: Wallet, a long-running, established product already helping workers manage their pay, and SMB Banking, a newer banking product for small businesses.

## What they're looking for

- 10+ years of product design experience, including 4+ years of people management experience, ideally with senior designers or higher
- You're an established manager who has worked as a player-coach before. Ideally you've managed designers across products at different stages, for example an established, metrics-driven product alongside a true 0-1 effort
- Your portfolio and management track record show high-quality work in consumer or business financial products — fintech, banking, or financial platforms strongly preferred
- Experience partnering with Risk, Compliance, or Legal on regulated financial products (KYC/KYB, identity verification, money movement rails, partner bank relationships) is a strong plus
- You have experience incorporating AI tools and practices into how a whole design team works
