Senior Product Designer, Merchant Risk Experience

The Risk team works to protect the people that trust Square, by minimizing the financial risks that come with running a business. We keep our sellers safe while $25B+ flows through Square annually, and along the way help each other make calculated risk/reward trade offs to grow sellers, and make complicated and sometimes painful processes understandable to all. 

We are looking for a Product Designer to join Risk in delivering critical knowledge and experiences to our sellers that help them make sense of these complex situations in money movement—getting sellers their money faster and protecting them along the way. You will work alongside other product designers, content designers, product managers, researchers, engineering, and legal to increase usability and ease of use across Risk experiences.

You will:

• Design from a customer-first perspective, advocating for the customer and approaching problems with an experience mindset.

• Find opportunities to improve systems and processes to create more value in our business and our customer experience.

• Facilitate workshops, conduct research, and work cross-functionally to create a collective understanding of our tools, systems and services.

• Build strong relationships with cross-functional team members.

• Create elegant and clear journey maps, service blueprints, and documentation of systems.

• Create professional, well-thought-out designs using established design systems.

• Apply metrics, data, design research, user testing, customer support insights, and more to inform experience decisions.

• Manage and prioritize your workload of multiple projects with different collaborators with moderate guidance from design leadership.

• Always think about how your work fits into the full ecosystem during all phases of the design process.

You have:

• At least 5 years of relevant professional experience.

• A portfolio of shipped work on which you were the primary designer, completed with moderate guidance from design leadership.
