Founding Product Designer

Yonder makes it easy to offer complex benefits like retirement or health insurance globally in minutes, not weeks – while increasing access to a generation underserved. Our ultimate goal is to be the platform for providers to access a segment of customers who have been left behind as industries have changed and the consumer-grade experience has not evolved.

What you can expect from joining

• You’ll be joining us early in our journey. We’re still building out our core product and infrastructure. We have funding & first users in sight - now we’re focusing on hiring great engineers to join us

• Having a real voice & ownership - we’re a small, early-stage team, and when you join you’ll be working across the whole system and making calls on how it should evolve

• Contributing outside of code - could be helping us with some compliance deep dives to helping someone with an urgent issue, early stages can be a little less defined

• Fittingly we believe you should be rewarded for having that outsized impact with equity that gives you ownership in not just the systems but also the company

• More, listed below
