Product Designer

FiNC is seeking a Product Designer to shape and build the Digital Politics Hub, a directory connecting citizens with underdog candidates, independent media, and movements. The role designs user flows and accessible experiences and implements them in Softr, improving existing pages and shipping new features.

Responsibilities:

• Citizen login and Civic Tags. Design how a citizen adds their name and picks the issues they care about, so they're counted by what they care about, not by which party they're filed under
• Group Profiles and the Group Portal. Design the home every movement, outlet, third party, and creator gets when they join the coalition, so an underdog doesn't need a press office to look real
• Group Discovery. Design how citizens find groups that match them, so finding your people doesn't run through a party or a news feed
• Clean up what's there. Calmer pages, 1 consistent look, and a clear next step on every page, so it reads as 1 place people can trust
• Accessibility as a gate, not a checklist. Keyboard-only end to end, screen reader labels on every field, and real contrast, with WCAG 2.1 AA as the benchmark. We're building with a disability community, so every page has to work for them
• Ship small and often. Connect Softr pages to Airtable views so lists, filters, and detail pages work. Improve them week by week instead of saving changes for a big redesign

Requirements:

• A portfolio of live product, UI, or web design work
• what you've shipped counts more than years
• Real, working things built in a no-code or low-code tool: Softr, Webflow, Bubble, Glide, or Framer
• You think in flows, not single screens
• Comfortable with relational data: linked records, filters, and views
• Comfortable with things that are half-built
• You care whether people are actually represented, and it's part of why you'd give your hours to this
• Softr and Airtable are a big plus
• A genuinely good eye
• HTML and CSS to customize a block when the standard ones fall short, plus some JavaScript
• If you can't write it yourself, you know how to get AI to help
• Accessibility testing with real assistive tech
• Experience with civic tech, directories, or community products
