Job Level
About the role
- Own end-to-end design for high-impact product initiatives, from early exploration through launch and iteration.
- Translate ambiguous business and customer problems into clear product strategy, user flows, and interaction models.
- Design intuitive, reliable, and delightful payment experiences across multiple markets, platforms, and user types.
- Lead thoughtful discovery: user research, usability testing, data analysis, and synthesis—without being precious about process.
- Partner deeply with Product and Engineering to shape solutions that balance user needs, technical realities, business goals, and long-term scalability.
- Leverage advanced prototyping techniques (including AI-assisted workflows) to explore, validate, and communicate ideas quickly.
- Champion accessibility and inclusive design as a baseline, not a “nice-to-have.”
- Raise the design bar through critique, mentorship, and example—without ego.
- Continuously evolve our design systems, patterns, and operational practices to support scale.
Requirements
- A strong, well-articulated portfolio showing shipped work with real-world impact. You can clearly explain why decisions were made, not just what was designed.
- Deep experience designing complex, high-stakes products (fintech, SaaS, platforms, or similarly rigorous domains).
- Excellent command of visual design, interaction design, and UX fundamentals—across web and product interfaces.
- Strong product thinking: you understand trade-offs, constraints, and how design choices influence business outcomes.
- Demonstrated ability to use qualitative and quantitative data to inform decisions—and challenge assumptions.
- Fluency in modern design tools, prototyping methods, and AI-enabled workflows.
- A clear understanding of accessibility standards and inclusive design practices.
- Exceptional collaboration and communication skills—you can influence without authority.
- A growth mindset and self-leadership: you manage your time, energy, and development without needing supervision.
