The Role

The Design Department at Addepar shapes wealth managers’ digital experiences. By designing and delivering intuitive, easy-to-use products, we help wealth managers grow their businesses and provide best-in-class services to their clients. We foster an agile, client-centered work environment with a focus on constructive feedback and collaboration. We’re passionate about delivering innovative, accessible, and beautiful products that redefine our clients’ day-to-day financial activities.

We’re looking for a motivated, collaborative, and creative individual that’s excited to own content design projects and deliver results.
In this role, you’ll design modern, elevated, and mobile-first experiences for advisors and their clients. You’ll shape workflows that help advisors curate and communicate critical financial information through the Client Portal. You’ll also evolve and unify the voice and tone across our core product.

Our ideal candidate is passionate about crafting intuitive, innovative, and beautiful user experiences that people love. You enjoy simplifying complexity and making traditionally technical and overwhelming experiences easy and enjoyable.

This role is part of the Product organization and collaborates with product management, design, and engineering. This is not a content marketing role.

Addepar takes a market-based approach to pay. A successful candidate’s starting pay will be determined based on the role, job-related skills, experience, qualifications, work location, and market conditions. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target base salary for roles in Colorado, California, and New York.

The current range for this role is $90,000 - $169,000 + bonus + equity + benefits.

Your recruiter can share more about the specific salary range for your preferred location during the hiring process. Additionally, these ranges reflect the base salary only, and do not include bonus, equity, or benefits.
