## About the role

At Trovy, the lines between design, engineering, and product are blurring. This new role involves a hybrid of design craft and shipping code. We’re looking for a design-trained early-career person who either has experience shipping AI-assisted code to production, or who’s excited to learn. You won't hand off a Figma file and hope for the best; you'll design the page and then build it, using AI coding tools as a core part of how you work.

## What they're looking for

- An online portfolio. We care much more about what you've made than where you went to school or what your degree says
- Web design fundamentals. Familiarity with typography, layout, hierarchy, color, and motion. A working understanding of responsive web design. Competency in Figma
- Experience with AI coding tools. Claude, Cursor, or similar, as an everyday tool. Just as important: the judgment to review, test, and take responsibility for what comes out
- High agency. We’re an early-state startup, every team member is responsible for our success. You find the thing that needs doing and do it. You ask when you're stuck, and you're comfortable being the only person who owns a given surface
- You do not need a computer science degree, prior full-time experience, or a background in fintech. This is a first- or second job. We’re excited to mentor and train you
