Lev is on a mission to become the operating system for commercial real estate capital markets. We’re transforming the $600B CRE financing space by bringing together cutting-edge AI and real-time lender data into a digital marketplace that matches borrowers and brokers with the best-fit lenders—instantly. Backed by top-tier investors and industry leaders who’ve invested over $100M in us, we’ve already facilitated over $2 billion in transactions in just two years. Now, we’re just getting started.

Who we’re looking for

As our Lead Product Designer, you’ll define the look and feel of Lev’s end-to-end digital user experience, playing a foundational role in crafting our design vision from the ground up. You’ll own the entire design process—from user research and discovery through to the final UI polish—championing our customers’ needs every step of the way.

  • Help drive the Vision: Help set and execute the vision for Lev’s user experience, working closely with product, engineering, marketing, and operations.
  • Hands-On Execution: This is an individual contributor role where you’ll be getting your hands dirty, designing core features and shaping the future of industry-defining products.
  • Design Systems & Alignment: Create and maintain a robust design system and asset library, ensuring a cohesive visual language across all products.
  • User-Centric Iteration: Partner directly with our customers to gather insights, explore solutions, and prototype ideas. Continuously iterate to reduce friction, simplify complexity, and deliver exceptional experiences.
  • Visual Craftsmanship: Sweat the details. Strive for simplicity. Ensure our interfaces are not only intuitive but also beautiful, polished, and delightful.
  • Strategic Influence: Inform product strategy, contribute to our roadmap, and ensure every design decision reflects a deep understanding of user needs and business goals.

Who You Are

  • You have 3+ years of professional experience designing software products end-to-end (UX & UI).
  • You move fast, embrace experimentation, and learn from mistakes.
  • You have a strong portfolio that demonstrates your product design expertise and visual design finesse.
  • You are curious, empathetic, forward-thinking, and strategic.
  • You’re a Figma expert who thrives in fast-paced environments and can create structure from chaos.
  • You’ve successfully collaborated with developers, PMs, and cross-functional teams to ship real products.
  • Your extraordinary visual design skills are backed by a strong understanding of UX principles.

What We Offer

  • Compensation & Equity: Competitive salary ($175,000 - $200,000/year depending on experience) plus meaningful stock options.
  • Workspace & Well-Being: Daily DoorDash credits for lunch, a fully stocked snack pantry, and comprehensive health insurance coverage.
  • Balance & Growth: 401(k) retirement plan, Gympass access, and opportunities for continuous learning and mentorship in a supportive environment.
