Who are we?
X1 is building the smartest credit card ever made. We power over $750M in annualized spending and are rapidly growing.
We have been featured in publications like Business Insider, Fast Company, Forbes, Inc., Money, CNBC, CNET, Nasdaq, TechCrunch and Wired.
We have raised over $60M from some of the most iconic investors in Silicon Valley, who founded Google Analytics, Y Combinator Continuity, PayPal, Affirm, Box, Yelp, and more. These include David Sacks, Max Levchin, Wesley Chan, CEOs of Yelp, Box, and Y Combinator Continuity, The Chainsmokers, and Jared Leto.
What will you do?
First and foremost, you'll handcraft and refine UI features and flows within the X1 mobile app as an end-to-end designer, in line with our distinctive look and feel. You'll design mobile experiences in Figma that meet the expectations of X1 cardholders, who were drawn to us in large part because of our refreshing emphasis on design.
Prepare to be pushed; you'll be required to take your work several iterations further than you've ever done before, to create jaw-droppingly simple and delightful work you'll be extremely proud of. Please be warned: at X1, we sweat the details for our colleagues and our cardholders.
