Product Designer
The Role
The company in a nutshell
Families can't keep up with all of their critical information. People are responsible for many layers of financial, legal and personal information. It's difficult to remember what we have and where things are, which, in turn, makes it difficult to let others know what we have and where things are.
We believe life is already difficult enough and families shouldn't have to struggle to keep up with everything, or to let others know what we have and where things are. From financial accounts, insurance policies, investments, estate documents, collectibles, to ownership structures, titles, companies, and even down to locations of keys, combinations, and critical instructions, the extensive amount of ‘things’ families have is overwhelming, and constantly growing, changing and evolving.
Kinnect is a revolutionary platform that makes it easier than ever for families to keep everything secure, organized and accessible in one place.
Kinnect was created to standardize the way families manage and share information.
We have built a world class development team, and are backed by leaders who have spent their careers in executive positions in the financial, legal, and family office industries. We're taking our platform to the market starting with some of the worlds most complex families, and gradually bringing it to a DIY level.
We successfully completed our first funding round in August of 2022.
We are now looking to expand our product design team to supercharge our speed of execution.
