- Create data-heavy interfaces such as charts, maps and AI-assisted insights that support business decisions.
- Meet with internal users to understand how they work, capture needs and test rough prototypes, often turning feedback around within hours.
- Produce interface designs in Figma or with AI tools, suggest your own feature ideas and help shape the roadmap with leadership.
- Partner with backend and quantitative research leads to build tools for additional business functions.
Requirements

- A track record of leading product work end to end, from early scoping through release, across a wide area of functionality.
- Strong front-end background shipping production web apps, with React and Next.js.
- Experience creating data-intensive products featuring visualizations, charts and maps.
- Skill in designing and prototyping user interfaces in Figma or similar tools.
- Comfort using AI-assisted tools to speed up prototyping, coding and delivery.
- Ability to partner with internal stakeholders, collect reactions to early versions and turn them into clear requirements.
