Product Designer

Who We Are

SaverLife is a national nonprofit and advocacy organization using technology to improve the financial health of people living on low-to-moderate incomes. SaverLife helps our members build financial health and savings through our fintech product, with a personalized experience that includes financial content, savings rewards and incentives, trusted referrals, and access to a supportive online community. Leveraging our fintech product and research findings, we bring our members' voices and priorities into system-level conversations to ensure current and emerging products, programs, and policies support their unique financial health journeys.

About the Role:

At SaverLife, we believe technology can be a powerful force for financial inclusion. As our Product Designer, you’ll play a pivotal role in bringing that vision to life—designing engaging, intuitive digital experiences that empower people to build financial security.

You’ll sit at the intersection of design, product strategy, and user insight, collaborating with our Product & Insights, Research, and Engineering teams—as well as external partners—to translate member needs and organizational goals into elegant, high-impact solutions. From early concept sketches to final implementation, you’ll drive the design process end-to-end, ensuring every interaction reflects both technical excellence and human-centered design.

We’re looking for a creative thinker and systems-minded problem solver who’s passionate about using design and technology to make a meaningful difference. If you thrive on collaboration, innovation, and purpose-driven work, this is your opportunity to shape how SaverLife members experience their financial journey.
