Group Product Design Manager - Banking

San Francisco, CA, New York, NY, Portland, OR, or Remote within Canada or United StatesIn 1954, Eero Saarinen designed a bank with glass walls, no offices, and a completely open floor plan in Columbus, Indiana. It was surrounded by trees; the furniture was made by Herman Miller; the lobby flooring was thick, rustic brick. It was built with transparency and community at its core.Since then, a lot of things have happened—Saarinen’s bank is now a conference center, people increasingly live on the internet, and it’s hard to think of a single financial institution that still applies design thinking to their company.Mercury is on a mission to defy those expectations.
