- Contribute to design system governance, maintenance, and ongoing improvements.
- Present work, participate in critiques, and communicate design rationale to partners and stakeholders.
- Incorporate feedback thoughtfully and follow through on design updates with a high level of attention to detail.

- A portfolio demonstrating strong web design, visual design, and systems thinking.
- Experience designing responsive marketing websites and landing pages.
- Understanding of design system principles, including tokens, components, variants, states, patterns, and templates.
- Systems thinker: Sees patterns across components, modules, tokens, and page experiences; knows when to create, consolidate, or extend a solution.
- Experience collaborating with engineers and working within technical constraints.
- Strong visual design skills, including layout, typography, color, composition, and hierarchy.
- Experience creating or maintaining icon libraries, or a strong interest in developing iconography skills.
- Familiarity with accessibility and inclusive design principles.

SoFi Insights
What We Do
SoFi wasn’t built to be a bank. Or a technology company. We were built for one mission: help people achieve financial independence so they can realize their ambitions. Redefining an entire industry isn’t easy work—and it’s not for the faint of heart. It takes a certain kind of team. People with diverse perspectives and expertise, united by a common sense of purpose. People willing to challenge assumptions but always do the right thing. People proving that innovation and responsibility don’t have to compete, but can come together to create something truly unconventional in the world. For the last eight years, we’ve been charting this new path forward. We call it The SoFi Way. At SoFi, we don’t just talk about culture: we live it. The SoFi Way is how we show up every day, how we make decisions, and how we build for our members, clients, and each other.
Why Work With Us
Together with our members, we’re changing the way people think about and interact with personal finance. We’re a next-generation Fintech company using innovative, mobile-first technology to help our members reach their goals. The industry is going through an unprecedented transformation, and we’re at the forefront.
