About Nuvo
The Role
What You’ll Do
Who You Are
Nuvo is building the infrastructure that powers trade in the physical goods economy.
Every part of modern life depends on physical goods: the food we eat, the fabric we wear, the steel and concrete that shape our cities. Behind it all are 50 million businesses trading $100 trillion each year.
Consider how housing gets built. One company cuts down trees, another turns the wood into building materials, another sells the product wholesale, and a contractor uses them to build homes. Each step is a business trading with another to turn raw materials into finished goods.
Most of these businesses still operate through offline networks, held together by fragmented systems, manual processes, and institutional memory. When trade is slow, costly, or error-prone, the effects cascade — resources get misallocated, businesses can’t grow, and consumers face higher costs and fewer choices.
Nuvo builds technology that makes trade fast, automated, and intelligent. More than 75,000 businesses already use our platform, and we’re backed by $45M from Sequoia, Spark, Founders Fund, and Index as we build the operating system for global commerce.
Design at Nuvo sits at the center of how our platform works and feels. Our products span identity, risk, payments, AI, and more, all built on top of the connectivity between businesses on our platform. As a Senior Product Designer, you’ll shape how this system comes to life for thousands of businesses, defining how complex operations become simple, intuitive, and powerful.
You’ll operate with deep ownership, collaborating closely with engineering, product, and customer teams. You’ll help define the next generation of experiences that make Nuvo increasingly compelling across new industries and use cases.
