Staff Product Designer

T0 is your AI CFO from day zero. We automate the entire financial backend for founders—from bookkeeping and payroll to tax, forecasting, and investor reporting—so they can focus on building instead of managing financial busywork. We’re not a research lab — we’re a launchpad. Our team is building an AI-powered finance engine and moving fast alongside real companies. Ideas go from whiteboard to production in weeks, not years, and engineers see the immediate impact of their work in the hands of customers. Our mission is to rewire the broken infrastructure of global finance, and your work directly contributes to that transformation. At T0, you’ll solve real problems with immediate customer impact, operate with autonomy and ownership, and build foundational AI on top of infrastructure already supporting businesses at scale. If you want to move fast, tackle challenges that truly matter, and help redefine how financial operations work across the industry, this is where you build.
