Job Summary
About Hanover Park
Were building the AI-native ERP that will define private markets infrastructure. This isnt an AI wrapper slapped onto legacy software - we built a proprietary general ledger accounting system from the ground up designed specifically for complex investment firms. As the system of record weve earned the trust to bundle fund administration with tools that were previously fragmented: investor portals AI-powered portfolio management KPI collection and more.
With AI context is king. And Hanover Park has all the context on our customers.
In under a year weve scaled to over $15 billion in assets under administration serving investment firms and LPs that include top-5 banks and major endowments. Were backed by Emergence Capital (first investor in Salesforce and Zoom) Susa Ventures (first investor in Robinhood and Flexport) and Lux Capital.
Stripe for payments. Ramp for expenses. Hanover Park for investments.
About the role
Finance software is notoriously ugly. Dense tables clunky workflows zero delight. We think thats a design problem - and a real opportunity.
Youll join our product design team to shape how fund CFOs operations leads and LPs interact with their most critical workflows. That means owning craft end-to-end: the visual language the system the research and the pixels. Youll work directly with founders and engineers - not through a PM layer.
The domain is complex. Waterfall models fund accounting LP reporting - none of it is simple to design for. But youll have direct access to real users who will tell you exactly whats broken about every tool theyve ever used. Thats rare.
What youll work on
Major product surfaces - The surfaces that matter most; how LPs engage how funds come to life how data tells a story - and everything we build from here
Our design system - extending and hardening the patterns that scale across a complex platform
User research directly with fund CFOs ops leads and LPs - synthesizing what you learn into product decisions
Implementation-ready specs that engineers can build from without a back-and-forth
The long-term visual language of Hanover Park
What were looking for
Need:
A portfolio that shows how you think through complex data-heavy interfaces - not just how they look
Strong visual craft - you sweat the details ship pixel-perfect work and have a point of view on what good looks like
Experience building or evolving a design system in a fast-moving product
Comfort going deep with users - running research not just reading someone elses findings
Figma fluency and a track record of handing off specs engineers love
Nice to have:
Fintech accounting software or enterprise SaaS background
Experience designing at a seed-to-Series B startup
This isnt the right fit if:
You need heavy PM direction before you can get started
You treat design as primarily a visual discipline - our product is functionally complex and design has to serve that
You havent worked closely with engineers before
Why join now
Private markets are a $100 trillion asset class running on outdated software. Were fixing that. The work is hard the velocity is high and what you ship will be used by some of the most sophisticated investors in the world.
If that sounds like your kind of problem lets talk.
