About this role
About ClarkClark is building the trust infrastructure for the AI economy.
We're starting with audit and accounting workflows—high-trust environments where reliability, accuracy, and security matter as much as productivity. Our platform helps firms automate complex workflows, deploy AI safely, and modernize how audit teams operate.
The RoleWe are hiring a Founding Product Designer to define how customers experience Clark.
