About Us

At Niva, we’re building a universal identity layer that enables trust between businesses worldwide. We leverage cutting-edge language models and machine learning to deliver instant, reliable, and borderless business verification. Leading fintechs, banks, and public companies already use Niva to verify businesses, prevent fraud, and meet Know Your Business (KYB) requirements in minutes.

Read more about how Niva’s platform reduced time spent to verify businesses by 98% with a customer here. We’re a fast-moving team on a mission to make it effortless to trust businesses anywhere in the world and we’re looking for eager new teammates to help us accelerate our mission. 

The Impact

We’re hiring our first product designer, which means you won’t just be designing features, you’ll be building the foundation for a design-driven culture at Niva. You’ll work closely with our co-founders, engineers, and customers to translate complex regulatory and technical processes into intuitive, modern experiences. This role is perfect for someone excited to tackle zero-to-one challenges and own design end-to-end.

What You'll Do

  • Drive the full design lifecycle from ideation through implementation for Niva’s business verification platform, focusing initially on the data information architecture
  • Partner with product, engineering, and founders to define intuitive experiences for complex problems
  • Define and develop Niva’s design language and design system 
  • Help shape how design functions at Niva: processes and tools, but more importantly, values, and culture

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years experience working in product design role (particularly working on B2B SaaS)
  • Ability to move fast and iterate quickly in an early-stage environment
  • Prior experience building a design system
  • Experience with HTML/CSS or front-end frameworks like React. You don’t need to be an expert, but must have some experience translating your designs in Figma to a webpage
  • Passion for evangelizing design-thinking and excited about making design an integral part of our culture

Bonus Points For

  • Experience working in fintech, identity, compliance, or trust & safety
  • Experience with Tailwind CSS
  • Previous experience as the first or founding designer at a startup

What we offer

  • Competitive salary range of $180k - $220k
  • Substantial equity in the company
  • Comprehensive health benefits (medical, dental, vision)
  • Flexible working hours and flexible time off
  • A chance to be a part of a pioneering company with a mission to revolutionize global trust and commerce
