ATG (Autonomous Technologies Group) is an AI lab deploying frontier reasoning systems within financial markets.
Founders: Early GPU cloud (9 figure exit).
Investors: Garry Tan / YC + Founder of one of the most successful quant funds, BoxGroup (Plaid, Ramp, Stripe), top-tier angels.
We're looking for a product designer to help design, build, and ship the Autonomous product experience. This is not a traditional design role: you'll use agentic coding tools like Claude Code to rapidly prototype ideas and build real product experiences, collapsing the distance between concept and shipped product. Your work will shape how people first encounter Autonomous and how they experience it every day, from the brand to the product itself. You'll learn from a tenured team while pushing your own craft forward. From product UX to brand campaigns to marketing materials, you'll move fluidly across surfaces with a bias for speed, taste, and invention. If you thrive in ambiguity, learn fast, and care deeply about craft, this role is for you.
Design and ship core product experiences, from private beta to App Store release.
Use AI-powered tools to rapidly prototype and build working product experiences, not just mockups.
Create marketing materials: videos, images, landing pages, and campaign assets that communicate what Autonomous is and why it matters.
Help develop the brand direction: visual identity, motion language, and creative voice as we scale.
Collaborate closely with founders, product designers, and engineers on product direction and prototyping.
Explore widely and iterate quickly to make useful, intuitive, and delightful experiences for our users.
Maintain high craft across everything you touch: typography, spacing, color, motion, and the details that make experiences feel considered.
We're early, fast, and ambitious. Every person has a direct line to product decisions and user impact. We optimize for:
User delight — clean, intuitive, premium experiences that earn trust.
Speed with taste — ship quickly without cutting corners on craft.
Building as thinking — the best way to evaluate an idea is to make it real.
Collaboration — work in a flat, high-trust environment.
Based in NYC and excited to work onsite. We build better when we're in the same room.
2-3 years of product design experience (or equivalent personal projects demonstrating exceptional craft and initiative).
Shipped real work: apps, websites, campaigns, side projects.
Strong visual craft. You care about typography, spacing, color, motion, and the details that separate good from great.
Comfortable in Figma and excited to use AI tools (Claude Code, Codex, Nano Banana, Midjourney) to prototype and build.
Able to move between product design and brand/marketing work without losing quality in either.
High-agency. You don't wait for permission, you try things, show your work, and iterate.
Resilient. Not every idea will work. You're energized by exploration, not defeated by dead ends.
Clear communicator, whether presenting work, taking feedback, or shifting gears under pressure.
Expertise in leveraging the latest AI tools to increase creative output while maintaining high quality, craft, and coherence.
Designed for AI-native products.
Created video content, motion graphics, or brand campaigns.
Built a design blog, side project, or creative portfolio that shows range beyond your day job.

Autonomous is a superintelligent financial advisor at 0% advisory fees.
Today, managing your money means one of two bad options:
DIY your money: You end up with accounts everywhere (401k, IRAs, brokerage, crypto, savings, equity, secondaries). Your spreadsheet is always wrong. You make expensive mistakes because this isn't your full-time job.
Hire a financial advisor: They'll manage your money and charge 1-2% of assets annually. Run that math over multiple decades and you're handing over half your net worth to fees.
Neither path can economically deliver the sophisticated, personalized strategies the ultra-wealthy use to compound wealth: strategic tax-loss harvesting across individual securities, systematic risk management, portfolio-backed borrowing to defer capital gains, access to alternatives, etc.
These aren't secret – they're just economically impossible to deliver at scale through traditional human advisors.
Robos were supposed to fix this, but they were designed in a pre-AI world. In practice they just manage cookie-cutter portfolios. They don’t coordinate across your 401(k), taxable accounts, mortgage, equity, and cash flow, they don’t help with real decisions like job offers, windfalls, or concentrated stock, and they don’t deliver institutional strategies. That’s why, even after a decade plus, the biggest robos are still <$100B AUM while old-school advisors like Raymond James / Edward Jones sit on trillions.
We’re doing for financial advising what Robinhood did for brokerages. Think of it as a full-stack, AI-native wealth strategist that brings billionaire-style playbooks to ordinary investors.
Autonomous is built around a frontier-scale reasoning engine—an AI that perceives global events as they unfold, understanding their deeper implications for markets and and most importantly, how these events will impact your investments.

No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
If they’re a yes, I book the chat. You show up — that’s the whole job-hunt.
