Product Designer, Afterpay

We are looking for a Product Designer to join our growing design team. Our focus is to create world-class experiences for our customers. We pride ourselves in rethinking established paradigms and bringing creative solutions into existence in the commerce space.

Our product designers take a product, feature, or experience from ideation to production. This includes vision setting, designing solutions, prototyping, bringing along cross-functional teams, overseeing implementation, and collaborating with other designers, researchers, writers, product managers, analysts, and engineers.

Cash App's commerce team is building an ecosystem where merchants can grow their businesses and customers come to connect with businesses they love. Whether offering top merchant deals or giving customers the ability to buy now and pay later, our team is focused on helping our customers save and spend responsibly. This role would be working within the Afterpay Product Design team which owns the end to end experience for all things Afterpay. As a product designer on the Commerce team, you’ll shape strategy, build features, and be looked upon as an expert for some of our most important products.

We’re looking for someone who has:

• 5+ years of experience as a Product Designer
• A passion for turning complex problems into simple and engaging solutions
• An innate understanding of the end-to-end design process - from identifying customer needs, jobs-to-be-done and pain points to delivering exceptional customer experiences
• Outstanding UX capabilities, strong visual design competency, and product thinking for mobile centric experiences
• The ability to apply consumer insights and metrics to inform design decisions and influence the product roadmap
• Comfort with an iterative design process that includes accepting and acting on feedback
• Competence in relevant design and prototyping tools
• Strong systems thinker with the ability to connect the dots across the entire customer ecosystem both on and off our products
• Strong collaboration and self-management skills
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, and can clearly & succinctly present concepts to the broader product and design team.
• Experience in being a strategic partner to product teams and idea forming
• Familiarity in creating interactive prototypes

Even better:

• Experience working with other designers, providing feedback and coaching work
• Previous work experience in a consumer-focused tech organization
• Experience in customer journey mapping and strategic design to complement design foundations

Please submit a deck or portfolio of work with your application that showcases your design process from exploratory stages through execution. If your portfolio site requires a password, please provide us with it in your application or on your resume. Thank you!
