This is a full-time role as a Founding UI/UX Designer, located onsite in New York, NY.
As the first design hire at Hadrius, you will own the UI/UX protecting our financial markets and will work directly with the founding team to design and build the future of the financial system from the ground floor of a hyper growth startup. As we grow, there are plenty of opportunities for leadership and we pride ourselves on having a hands off culture by having very few meetings while giving everyone a broad scope of responsibility.

You'll be on a team that works incredibly hard and seeks other exceptional people excited to do the same.

- Learn the Hadrius way: how we work and build for hyper growth
- Contribute to product discussions in weekly all hands
