Description

About Preql

Preql is building the AI-powered financial data platform for the modern enterprise. We're developing agentic AI workflows that help finance teams clean, transform, and structure their data without writing code. Think "Lovable.com for data pipelines" - just as website builders help users refine ideas into working apps, Preql helps users refine messy, fragmented financial data into production-ready workflows using natural language.

Our customers include media companies, media networks, retailers, and manufacturers who need reliable metrics and automated reporting. The company is backed by tier 1 venture firms and previous data company founders.

The Role

We're seeking a Product Designer to shape the user experience of our AI-powered platform. Working with the lead Product Manager and technical leadership, you'll make complex data transformation feel intuitive and trustworthy for finance teams. The role is initially part-time with flexibility to grow.

What You'll Design:

• Conversational interfaces that make AI-powered data transformation feel as simple as chatting with a colleague while building sophisticated workflows behind the scenes
• Interactive workflows where users refine data cleaning through natural language feedback and see results in real time
• Dashboards and visualizations that surface transformation logic in terms finance teams understand and auditors trust
• Design systems and component libraries that scale across web applications and integrations
• Onboarding and education patterns that help non-technical users confidently adopt AI-powered tools

Key Responsibilities:

• Own end-to-end product design from discovery through high-fidelity prototypes and production handoff
• Conduct user research with finance teams to understand workflows, pain points, and mental models
• Translate complex data operations into clear, approachable interfaces
• Develop and maintain a coherent design system that balances speed with consistency
• Collaborate closely with engineering to ensure design intent survives implementation
• Participate in customer demos to observe user reactions and gather feedback firsthand
• Iterate rapidly based on product specifications and real-world usage patterns

Requirements

• 4+ years of product design experience shipping web applications
• Strong portfolio demonstrating complex workflows simplified into intuitive interfaces
• Proficiency in modern design tools (Figma preferred)
• Experience with interaction design, not just visual design—you think in flows and states
• Ability to produce everything from rough wireframes to polished, production-ready specs

Strong Advantages

Nice-to-haves, but not strict requirements.

• Data/Analytics Product Experience: Previous work on dashboards, data tools, BI platforms, or analytics products
• AI/LLM Product Design: Experience designing for AI-powered features, conversational interfaces, or products with non-deterministic outputs
• Enterprise Software: Understanding of enterprise UX patterns—audit trails, permissions, bulk operations, admin workflows
• Financial Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with finance team workflows, accounting concepts, or fintech products
• Front-End Familiarity: Ability to read code, prototype in HTML/CSS, or work directly in design-to-code tools
• Founding Team Experience: Previous experience at early-stage startups where you wore multiple hats
  

What Makes This Role Special

You'll define the experience layer for a product that sits at the intersection of AI capabilities and critical business workflows. Finance teams are skeptical of AI for good reason—your work determines whether they trust it.

• Impact: Your designs directly shape whether enterprise finance teams adopt AI for their most important data
• Ownership: Small team means you own design end-to-end, not just one piece of a larger system
• Learning: Hands-on experience designing for agentic AI—a problem space with few established patterns
  

Team & Culture

Small, focused team where your contributions have immediate impact. Direct exposure to customer feedback, rapid iteration cycles, and well-funded runway to build something significant.
