We’re also on a mission to become an AI-first company—infusing intelligent systems, automation, and personalization into everything we do.

This is an opportunity to join an established yet entrepreneurial environment, where your craft is valued, your impact is felt, and your ideas help shape the future of digital security and secure financial wellness.
We’re looking for a Principal Product Designer with exceptional interaction and visual design craft and a strong track record of solving hard user and business problems in consumer products.
Key Responsibilities:
As a Principal Product Designer, you’ll play a critical role in defining and delivering user-first solutions across mobile, desktop and web platforms. You’ll collaborate closely with product, research, and engineering partners to translate strategy into thoughtful, high-quality experiences.
-
Shape strategy through design: Translate complex problems and abstract ideas into elegant, usable solutions grounded in user needs and business goals.
-
Raise the bar for craft: Own end-to-end experience quality—from flows and information architecture to interaction details and visual polish—so that every touchpoint feels cohesive, confident, and human.
-
Design intelligent experiences: Bring clarity and usability to AI-powered products by designing interactions that feel natural, transparent, and trustworthy.
-
Think systematically: Design scalable design patterns and frameworks to make more room for the hardest problems.
-
Turn insights into impact: Translate complex problems and abstract ideas into simple, usable, and delightful solutions grounded in user needs and data.
-
Prototype and test with AI: Explore new possibilities through discovery, rapid prototyping, and user testing—especially around how AI can simplify tasks or personalize experiences.
-
Collaborate and influence: Partner across disciplines to align design outcomes with user needs, business goals, and AI capabilities.
-
Champion design quality: Ensure every touchpoint is cohesive, accessible, human-centered and beautiful. Give and solicit feedback to ensure we maintain a high bar for craft.
About you:
-
8+ years of product design experience, with majority shipping mobile-first B2C products at scale.
-
Experience in cybersecurity or financial services is helpful, but curiosity, adaptability and a maker’s mindset matter more.
-
Able to take large, ambiguous problem spaces and break them into clear, actionable steps.
-
Exceptional interaction and visual design craft—best-in-class layout, navigation, IA, UI, motion, and micro-interactions.
-
Strategic, systems thinker who knows how design drives user value and business growth across journeys and platforms.
-
Experienced in creating design systems, standards, and principles that raise quality across a product organization.
-
Mastery of end-to-end product design: discovery, flows and IA, high-fidelity UI, prototyping, and implementation partnership.
-
Strong intuition for usability, complemented by deep user empathy and a belief in data-informed decision-making.
-
Influential, collaborative partner who leverages design to shape product and engineering decisions.
-
Curious, adaptable, and comfortable working across time zones and cultures; startup or solo-designer experience is a plus.
-
Experience with AI-driven features (personalization, recommendations, automation) is a strong plus.
-
You’re obsessed with beautiful experiences and thoughtful details.
Skills:
-
Expert in interaction design for mobile and responsive web, including complex flows, navigation, and micro-interactions.
-
Strong visual design craft with a refined sense of typography, color, and composition tailored to consumer brands.
-
Advanced design systems skills: creating, documenting, and evolving component libraries and patterns used across multiple products.
-
Proficient with modern design and prototyping tools to express motion, states, and end-to-end experiences.
-
Comfortable working with data and experimentation (qualitative insights, analytics, A/B tests) to inform and iterate on designs.
-
Experience designing AI-powered workflows (e.g., assistants, recommendations, automation) with a focus on transparency and control.
-
Strong storytelling and communication skills—able to frame problems, present trade-offs, and align partners around design decisions.
Personal Attributes:
-
User-obsessed and highly empathetic, with a strong bias toward human, accessible, and trustworthy experiences.
-
Strategic yet hands-on: equally energized by shaping strategy and sweating the craft details.
-
Systems thinker who sees connections across journeys, surfaces, and teams—and designs for long-term scalability.
-
Collaborative and low-ego, skilled at building trusted relationships and influencing without authority.
-
Curious and experimental, eager to explore new patterns—especially around AI—and learn through discovery and iteration.
-
Clear, candid communicator who gives and receives feedback well and raises the bar for design quality.
-
Resilient and adaptable, comfortable navigating ambiguity, shifting priorities, and distributed teams and time zones.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as an UI UX Designer
Frame your portfolio around specialty occupation
USCIS evaluates whether your role requires a specific bachelor's degree, not just design skills. Structure your portfolio to show the theoretical and technical depth behind your decisions, not just finished screens. Reviewers look for evidence that the work requires degree-level expertise.
Check prevailing wage before accepting offers
Your offer must meet the DOL prevailing wage for your SOC code and work location. Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up Level I through Level IV wages for your specific metro area before negotiating, since wages vary significantly by city.
Target employers with LCA filing history
Use Migrate Mate to filter for employers who have filed Labor Condition Applications for UI UX Designer roles. Past LCA filings confirm an employer understands the H-1B process and has active experience sponsoring this specific occupation, not just technical roles broadly.
Understand how job duties affect your SOC code
Employers file your LCA under a specific SOC code, and misclassification creates RFE risk. If your role mixes UX research with visual design, clarify with your hiring manager which code they plan to use before signing an offer, since different codes carry different prevailing wage levels.
Start the LCA process before your start date
Your employer must get DOL to certify the LCA before filing the I-129 petition with USCIS. LCA certification typically takes seven business days, but your employer needs time to post the public notice beforehand. Confirm they've started this process well before your intended first day.
Verify your employer is E-Verify enrolled if you're on OPT
If you're transitioning from OPT to H-1B and your employer isn't enrolled in E-Verify, you won't be eligible for a STEM OPT extension. Confirm E-Verify enrollment during the offer stage, since re-enrollment takes time and affects your authorization continuity during cap-gap.

Find UI UX Designer JobsUI UX Designer H-1B Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a UI UX Designer role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes, UI UX Designer roles generally qualify as specialty occupations when the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in human-computer interaction, design, cognitive science, or a closely related field. The key is that the degree must be a normal requirement for the role, not just preferred. Employers should document in the I-129 petition how the specific job duties require that level of theoretical knowledge.
How do I find employers who actively sponsor H-1B visas for UI UX Designer positions?
Search Migrate Mate to browse UI UX Designer roles filtered by employers with verified H-1B LCA filing history. DOL publishes LCA disclosure data, and Migrate Mate surfaces that data by role and employer so you can see which companies have actively sponsored this occupation, rather than guessing based on employer size or industry alone.
Which SOC code do employers typically use when filing an LCA for a UI UX Designer?
Employers most commonly file under SOC 15-1255 (Web and Digital Interface Designers) or 27-1021 (Commercial and Industrial Designers), depending on how the role is structured. If your work heavily involves research and information architecture, some employers file under 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other). The SOC code affects your prevailing wage level, so confirm it with your employer before signing your offer.
Can a UI UX Designer role support an H-1B if the employer lists a bachelor's degree as preferred rather than required?
Listing the degree as preferred rather than required is a common source of H-1B RFEs for design roles. USCIS looks for evidence that the position normally requires a specific degree. If the job posting says preferred, your employer should be prepared to explain in the petition why the actual job duties require degree-level expertise, ideally with reference to O*NET classification data for the occupation.
What happens to my H-1B status if my UI UX Designer role changes significantly after approval?
Material changes to your job duties, work location, or employer can require an amended H-1B petition before the change takes effect. Moving to a new office in a different metro area, for example, requires a new LCA for that location. Shifting from pure interface design into a primarily product management role could also trigger an amendment if the duties no longer align with the approved SOC code and petition.
