Contract Product Designer

Contract Product Designer (Remote)

Gifted Savings is looking for a freelance product designer to help shape and evolve our app experience while our founding designer is on paternity leave.

About Gifted Savings

Gifted Savings is a nonprofit organization gifting investments to change young people’s lives. By gifting students a $1,000 investment portfolio along with the knowledge to make it grow, we empower them to take control of their financial futures. We create meaningful opportunities for high school students to explore the value of investing, equipping them with real-world skills and experiences that last a lifetime.

The Gifted Savings high school program is facilitated through a custom-built web app, which allows students to track their gifted investment portfolios while delivering bite-sized, interactive lessons on investing education. As students progress through the program, they document their journey by sharing short video testimonials, offering insights into their personal growth and the impact of their new financial knowledge. The goal is to help students see the long-term power of saving and holding investments while fueling a growing conversation about financial well-being.

Gifted Savings has created a simple, scalable way for donors to gift investment assets directly to a large cohort of individual recipients (like all the students in a high school). On the recipient side, we make it simple for young people, many of whom may not otherwise have the chance to own appreciating assets, to hold and grow wealth. 

Gifted Savings is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit founded by serial entrepreneur, Farhad Mohit, with over $1B in exits — Flipagram (now TikTok), Shopzilla, and BizRate. 

What You’ll Work On

• Refine and evolve product flows — across both school-based and F&F experiences, including onboarding, user engagement, landing funnels, and learning moments.

• Design and test new features — from first-touch experiences to lesson plan UX, in collaboration with product and engineering.

• Support our upcoming school launches — help us ship clean, engaging experiences as we go live in 5 schools at the start of the academic year.

• Contribute to the financial education journey — support the evolution of our online lesson plan and how it integrates with product flows and learning milestones.

• Support marketing and communication needs — design flyers (Spanish and English), educator guides, social media templates, FAQs, and other assets as needed across both school and F&F initiatives.

• Collaborate across teams — work closely with PMs, engineers, and leadership to move fast and stay grounded in user needs.

• Adapt quickly to shifting priorities — jump in on fast-moving product or content needs that arise as we scale and test in real time.
  

What We’re Looking For

• A strong, detail-oriented visual thinker who brings ideas to life with intention.

• Comfortable designing across both product UX and communication design.

• Experienced in Figma, Framer, and Adobe Creative Suite.

• Able to think strategically and execute across multiple experience types (product, content, brand).

• Startup or agile experience preferred — someone who thrives in ambiguity and iteration.

• Self-directed and collaborative — async-friendly but comfortable joining weekly check-ins (e.g., Wednesdays at 4pm PT / 7pm ET).

Why you should join

• Impact: Work on something that will radically advance financial inclusion - and philanthropy - in America and beyond.

• Small Team: Join as an early team member, shaping an idea that can change the world for good.

• Flexibility: Enjoy the freedom of a remote work environment. This role requires 20-40 hours per week.
