About Clerkie

Launched in 2018, Clerkie began with an app, aiming to help the nearly 123 million underserved Americans in need of financial guidance. Since its inception, the company has expanded its services and now pairs consumer guidance with cutting-edge B2B software. By pairing the two through the Clerkie network, these tools have become the go-to resource for creditors looking to manage loan losses while simultaneously helping millions of borrowers get out of debt.

Clerkie is a remote-first company, with over 30 employees spanning 4 time zones across the United States. To date, the company has raised $41 million, including a $33 million Series A round in early 2023.

About the role

We’re hiring a Designer to join our growing Design team, with an immediate focus on supporting brand, marketing, and sales design needs, and longterm growth into the world of Product Design. This role is perfect for a creative who lives and breathes design - someone with a great eye, a strong portfolio, and a passion for making things look (and feel) great.

You’ll report into our Sr Product Designer, with dotted-line mentorship working elbow-to-elbow with our Product Designer. In this role, you’ll wear many design hats (and look amazing in them too!) - branding, marketing, creative, visual storytelling, maybe even a smidge of UX - so we’re looking for someone excited to learn, collaborate, and stretch their design muscles in new ways.

This role will start as an intern and after 9 months (or sooner) the goal is to convert to a full time employee. This is an ideal fit for someone earlier in their career (maybe your first or second design role!) who’s hungry to grow, contribute, and evolve into a well-rounded Product Designer down the road.

Here’s what you’ll do

• Design compelling brand assets that support marketing, sales, and partnerships including pitch decks, landing pages, collateral, and campaign visuals
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, GTM, and Engineering to ensure visual alignment across our external and internal experiences
• Support and evolve Clerkie’s visual identity and brand system
• Contribute to product and UX work—especially across web and mobile design—as you grow in your role
• Bring fresh ideas, thoughtful feedback, and big impact to our small but mighty design team

Here’s a snapshot of what the design team tackled last month

• Design custom assets and environments for prospective clients - partnering with Product and Eng to create some super slick sandbox demos that help us win big deals
• Contribute to high priority builds for enterprise partners, bringing your eye for design to fast-moving, high-impact projects
• Collaborate directly with our SLT on a fresh look and feel for our multiple product’s on-site experiences
• Add your voice to our evolving brand bible, shaping how Clerkie and Fiber show up across every touchpoint
• Help clean up and organize Coda, our internal knowledge hub, to make life easier for future new hires (like you!)
• Mock up new Clerkie + Fiber stickers (we take sticker culture seriously around here)
• Jam with People & Culture on new swag ideas
• Spend the day on a private yacht in the Bahamas (yep), swimming with pigs, paddleboarding, jet skiing, and joining our team hackathon on a private island
• And more! From big wins to team traditions, it’s been a month and we’re just getting started
