Responsibilities
Drive growth: Optimize high-traffic application flows to remove friction and increase conversion. You view every design challenge as an opportunity to test, learn, and improve business outcomes
Utilize Figma best practices: Build “Dev Mode” ready files using advanced Figma features (Variables, Conditional Logic, Auto Layout). Your files are structured, scalable, and easy for engineers to implement
Collaborative execution: Work lock-step with your squad (including product managers, engineers, analysts, and more) to ship high-value experiences, while actively syncing with the wider UX team to share feedback, maintain consistency, and ensure a unified design language across the products
Aligned ownership: You take full ownership of your work, driving projects from concept to delivery. You drive forward independently while still collaborating closely with your squad to ensure your work stays aligned with the roadmap
Apply design thinking: Drive the end-to-end process—empathizing, defining, ideating, and prototyping—to find solutions that are desirable for users and feasible for the business
Qualification
Required
5+ years of experience: You have at least 5 years of professional experience in UX/Product design, preferably within fintech, consumer finance, or similar environments
Advanced Figma architecture: You are a top-tier Figma user. You use logic and structure to make your files efficient and maintainable
Communication & influence: You are a confident presenter who can clearly articulate the 'why' behind your design decisions. You build trust by connecting your work directly to business goals and navigating conflict constructively
Growth mindset: You are data-informed. You design for outcomes, not just aesthetics, and are comfortable iterating based on performance metrics
Design system proficiency: You know how to utilize an existing library effectively to maintain consistency without reinventing the wheel
AI-responsibility: You know how to use AI tools to work smarter and embrace their pragmatic value, but you also understand their limitations and advocate for responsible, ethical usage
Design thinking portfolio: Case studies that show your process (the 'messy middle'), not just the final UI
Self-starter attitude: You take initiative to facilitate better hand-offs and collaboration, ensuring design intent is perfectly translated into the final product
Preferred
Nice to have: Experience building/maintaining design systems (tokens, components), front-end development knowledge (HTML/CSS, React) and experience conducting your own usability testing
