About Us
Repool is a fintech software company that is modernizing infrastructure for hedge funds, like Carta or Angellist for hedge funds. US hedge funds account for $3.5T of assets but rely upon antiquated services and technology from fractured service providers. Founded in 2021, Repool is a YC S21 alum with over $6M in funding from top firms like Canaan, Matrix, and Uncorrelated, as well as angel investors including founders from unicorns like Brex, Jeeves, Mercury, Flexport, Outschool, Pilot, and Forge. The team currently has 12 employees, split between NYC and SF. We are open to this role being in SF or NYC. NYC is in office 4 days a week while SF is in the office 3 days a week.

Provide the vision and direction for our product strategy and philosophy
Create and iterate upon Repool's product design processes
Work closely with engineering to define and deliver new features

You'll have the opportunity to build workflows that touch not only fund managers, but also their clients (investors), spanning banking, accounting, workflow automation, CRM, communications, and more.
Qualifications
1+ year of professional, full-time post-graduate design experience (ideally at software or venture backed companies)

Strong experience with Figma
Bachelor's degree or higher from a 4-year university or college, ideally in a design related field
Strong communication skills and ability to articulate why and how visuals and designs should work

Highly competitive salary relative to experience and the role, and a meaningful equity stake
100% covered, top-of-the-line health insurance, dental, and vision
401k w/match
100% covered life insurance, short-term disability insurance, and long-term disability insurance.
Commuter benefits
Optional critical illness, voluntary life insurance supplement, accident, and hospital insurance options
Unlimited PTO
What's Important To Us
Leaning in. Startups aren't where you go to make the absolute most money, have the best work-life balance, or the easiest role. That's not for everyone, but the worst situation is people who join startups wanting only the "upsides" and not the "downsides.". You should know that building a startup is hard, and while we aim to have work-life balance (i.e. we aren’t 9/9/6), this just isn't a 9-5 job, and it's also not a role where you can coast.
Culture. Between the two of us, we've been at companies with great culture, okay culture, and bad culture, and while there's no one way to have an amazing culture, there are many ways to have bad cultures. We want Repool to be a transformative, inspiring, and enjoyable place to work, and we're really interested in hiring for other people who feel similarly.
Building great product and moving quickly. Our operating philosophy is to seek the truth, debate earnestly, and then - lastly, decide and go.
Becoming more formidable. Whether it's in 8 years or 2 years, we know it's unlikely that Repool is the last stop of your life and professional journey. We care deeply about supporting you in using Repool to get to whatever's next.
