UX PRODUCT DESIGNER

Location: Philadelphia, PA

Job Type: Contract

Compensation Range: $80 - 90 per hour


We are seeking a Product Designer (S3, Contract) to support discovery‑led exploration focused on identifying net‑new, differentiating opportunities for our mobile native experience, with a specific emphasis on Millennial and Gen Z investors. This role is highly conceptual and future‑focused. The designer will help envision and communicate what next‑generation investing experiences could be, rather than delivering production‑ready designs.



Responsibilities:

Primary Objective
Help the team and senior leaders align around a compelling future vision for differentiated mobile experiences by:

• Exploring unmet and emerging needs of Millennial and Gen Z investors.
• Generating novel, forward-looking experience concepts.
• Translating ideas into high-impact prototypes and narratives that influence strategy and roadmap decisions.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and co-lead discovery-oriented design exploration within ambiguous problem spaces.
• Generate and iterate on early-stage experience concepts (net-new ideas, not incremental improvements).
• Partner closely with a dedicated UX researcher, consuming research insights and contributing to collaborative discovery.
• Rapidly prototype concepts (often high-fidelity) to communicate and sell ideas, not to hand off to engineering.
• Create clear, compelling narratives and decks for periodic senior-leader readouts.

How the Role Operates

• Works in a co-led discovery model with UX leadership, research, and product partners.
• Comfortable receiving direction and framing from leaders when priorities or constraints are set.
• Operates effectively in high ambiguity and helps shape the problem space.

Qualifications:

• Conceptual thinking and future-state experience design.
• Framing ambiguous problem spaces.
• Rapid prototyping to explore and communicate ideas.
• Storytelling and narrative development, especially for senior stakeholders.

Primary Outputs

• Early-stage experience concepts and opportunity areas.
• High-fidelity prototypes designed to communicate vision.
• Narrative decks and storytelling artifacts for leadership alignment.

What Success Looks Like

• Leaders align around a clear, differentiated future vision for the mobile experience.
• A small set of concepts meaningfully influence strategy or roadmap direction.
• The team gains a stronger point of view on Millennial and Gen Z investor needs.
