About AngelList
Private markets are the new public markets. The most important companies of this era are private, and almost no one can own them. What's missing is the financial system public markets spent a century building: exchanges, custodians, brokers, and ways for ordinary people to buy in. Private markets, now $28T, never had the equivalent. AngelList is building it.
The last decade of structural innovation in venture happened here: syndicates, SPVs at scale, Rolling Funds, scout programs. Today we have $200B+ in assets and 30,000+ startups funded on our platform. The rest of private markets is next. Funds is the software and services behind private funds, Nova is the banking network, Meridian is the wealth platform for accredited investors, and USVC is the brand behind a registered fund that lets anyone invest in venture.
Working here means an unusual amount of agency on a problem that matters. Titles are closer to suggestions, and there are about 200 of us building what private markets never had. Come build it with us.
About the Role
For the past five years, AngelList has been known for one thing: helping people start and operate venture funds. That’s changed in the past year. We’ve been building new banking, payments, wealth, and asset management business across multiple new brands, and are looking for a Product Design Lead who will help them grow into a coherent ecosystem.
You will be responsible for driving product design across each business, helping teams iterate toward products that win their markets. At the same time, many of our customers will use more than one part of AngelList over the course of their financial lives. An investor may first come to us to invest in a fund, later use another product to manage their assets, and eventually start a fund of their own.
The opportunity in this role is to do both: build excellent products within each division and also define the connective tissue across them. As part of this, you will build and lead the design team, raise the quality bar across our products, and establish the principles, systems, and discovery practices that will enable AngelList to becoming the leading financial institution for private markets.
