About the role:
You're a senior individual contributor who drives design excellence and strategic impact across multiple teams.

- Drive complex, ambiguous projects from discovery through launch across multiple teams

- Mentor and sponsor senior and mid-level designers (informally, no direct reports)
- Make critical design decisions that affect multiple teams
- Contribute significantly to design system strategy and evolution
- Represent design in organisational planning and cross-functional forums
- Identify strategic opportunities that weren't on the roadmap
What you bring
- Portfolio showing leadership and influence across multiple teams or products
- Proven track record of solving complex, ambiguous problems
- Deep expertise in visual design, interaction design, and systems thinking
- Strong research skills and ability to validate strategic decisions with evidence
- History of setting direction that others follow
- Experience mentoring and developing other designers
- Excellent stakeholder management and communication at senior leadership level
- Track record of identifying opportunities and driving them to completion
Requirements
- Mastery of design tools and advanced prototyping
- Ideally, 10+ years of product design experience with demonstrated strategic impact
- Strategic product thinking and strong business acumen
- Ability to influence without authority
- Comfortable operating with extreme ambiguity and creating clarity for others
- Strong facilitation skills for workshops and alignment sessions
- Can work autonomously for extended periods without guidance
- Makes high-stakes decisions
What you’ll get
- A leadership role in shaping the future of fintech - your work will impact millions of users.
- Career growth opportunities.
- A culture of experimentation - we encourage innovative thinking and rapid iteration.
- Competitive compensation and benefits.
- Remote-friendly work culture, with access to learning resources.
What to expect in the hiring process
- Application & portfolio review: we look for strong UX case studies that showcase process, research, impact, and leadership.
- Preliminary phone call with the recruiter: a brief conversation to discuss your background, interests, and expectations.
- Interview with a design team member: a discussion about your experience, approach to design, alignment with our mission, and a portfolio walkthrough.
- Design Challenge: an advanced exercise to assess problem-solving, UX/UI craft, and strategic thinking.
- Final executive conversation: a discussion with senior leadership about your ability to think strategically, collaborate across teams, and drive business and user impact through design.
How to apply:
Submit your resume and portfolio showcasing your best work - preferably with fintech or SaaS-related projects. Your portfolio should clearly demonstrate impact, including measurable improvements in user experience, business metrics, or engagement. We want to see end-to-end product thinking, including research, wireframes, prototypes, and final execution.
