Product Designer

Hi, we’re Trust & Will. We’re making estate planning simple, affordable, and accessible with a design-first approach and amazing customer support. Since launching in 2017, we have hundreds of thousands of happy customers using our complete suite of products nationwide. We’ve raised $23M to date from some of the leading names in venture capital who all believe in our mission to provide families a better way to plan for the future.

About the Role We’re looking for an experienced Product Designer to work directly with our Product team on transforming the world of estate planning.

As part of the Product team at Trust & Will, you’ll be instrumental in improving and expanding our current product - giving us a leading edge in user experience and data-driven design. Through collaboration with other members of our product team (currently 11), you’ll be responsible for supporting new features and products, improving our user flows, and driving innovation, working closely with our Head of Design. This is a great opportunity to play a pivotal role between design, engineering, and data analytics in a fast-paced startup as we continue to scale our platform in terms of users, products, and team members.

About you You have 3+ years of product design experience. You care as much about the way something works as the way it's implemented into code to create an elegant and seamless user interface and experience. You understand how brand plays a key role in defining an experience and strive for the best possible implementation across any channel. You want to work with a talented and driven team that pushes you to improve your craft and make a meaningful impact with your work.

You’ve worked in multi-disciplinary product teams, working and alongside other designers and developers; ideally, this would be in the form of another digital product at scale.

You love to use tests and data to justify your design decisions and can understand requirements to define solutions to get the results that are needed.
