About Intercept

Intercept is in the business of building trust in transactions between brands, distributors, and retailers in the $2.2T CPG industry (CPG = Consumer Packaged Goods, basically everything that you buy in a physical store). Around ~20% of a CPG brand's revenue gets spent on retailer and distributor fees, which contain many mistakes and are frequently audited and disputed. Intercept uses AI to automate this auditing process and dispute the invalid fees, earning money back for the brands.

About the role
Skills: Figma, TypeScript

We’re looking for a full-time Designer who can move fast, own projects end-to-end, and bring both taste and execution to everything from product screens to brand moments. This is a high-autonomy role. You’ll have the space to create, the responsibility to lead design direction, and the chance to make a visible mark on how the world experiences our product.

What you’ll do:

  • Own design across product, brand, and marketing.
  • Create polished, intuitive UI/UX in Figma, with a strong eye for interaction and usability.
  • Lead motion design projects: animations, micro-interactions, short videos, and visuals that make our product come alive.
  • Build and evolve our brand system including visual identity, style guidelines, and campaign concepts.
  • Partner with product and leadership to translate abstract ideas into high-impact visuals.
  • Prototype quickly, test ideas, and ship work that pushes the product forward.

What we’re looking for:

  • Strong portfolio spanning UI/UX, motion design, and branding.
  • Expert in Figma, comfortable creating both systems and pixel-perfect detail.
  • Ability to shift between creating high-level concepts and hands-on execution.
  • Strong taste, with a sense for modern design patterns and able to bend them when it creates something better.
  • Independent operator who thrives with high autonomy and low bureaucracy.

Why join:

  • Direct impact: You’ll define the visual language of the company.
  • Creative freedom: High trust, high ownership environment.
  • Early-stage: The brand and product are still being defined, so your fingerprints will be everywhere.
  • Smart, fast-moving team that values good design as much as good code.
