We are looking for a Product Designer to join our amazing Product Team! As a Product Designer you will accomplish work by utilizing a foundational knowledge of UX design principles, user-centered product development processes, style guides, and research tools. You work within defined guidelines to complete work such as: analyzing user needs, identifying product or platform requirements, and iteratively improving design solutions based on UX testing and partner/stakeholder input. You have a proven ability to design products and deliver outputs including the product or platform, and possess the depth of knowledge, experience, and business acumen required to assess and communicate how well-considered the design work is for appropriateness, longevity, collaboration, scaling. You also engage in community contribution to improve and maintain our culture and operations - making Affinipay a better place to work.
What You’ll Do:
Accountable for outcomes of one mature project, complex program, or emerging area, by helping to set and communicate user-driven product direction and priorities for a small number of collaborators.
Identify high impact opportunities and potential constraints and/or ways to deliver more equitable products that inform a cross-functional product initiative.
Contribute to design systems, languages, to inform goals, priorities, resource allocation, and key decisions needed to improve near and long-term outcomes for products and/or users (such as: enterprise, smb, global users, marginalized users).
Develop and advocate for long-term, user-centered product and/or co-design strategy that creates internal confidence, momentum and significant impact on a team, and positive impact for users/customers (such as: global users, enterprise, smb, marginalized users).
Develop a sustainable approach with accountability for addressing complicated problems with limited precedent to improve the end user experience.
Address complicated challenges as they arise, with foresight which anticipates and mitigates future issues and/or adverse impacts.
Recognize when the solution being proposed delivers little benefit to users and/or produces inequitable experiences, and challenge with alternative approaches.
Influence and/or make space for others’ voices across teams with shared objectives to align resources and direction for outcomes in the best interest of Affinipay, and/or users (such as: enterprise, smb, global users, marginalized users).
Formally or informally lead and mentor talent to ensure diverse and representative perspectives are present.
Align goals and objectives to the larger product or program initiative for multiple adjacent design efforts.
Increase adoption of user-centered design principles, Product Excellence, and or/co-design at the team, product, or organizational level.
Serve as a leader in UX design principles, user-centered product development methodologies, participatory and co-design methodologies, style guides, and research tools.
About You:
Education and Experience: A bachelor's degree in a related field such as HCI, computer science, graphic design or a related field, and/or equivalent of at least 5 years of experience in UX design.
Strong Design Skills: The candidate should have a strong design sense and the ability to create high-quality visual designs for websites, apps and other digital products. They should have a good understanding of user interface design principles and be able to create wireframes, prototypes and design mockups.
User Research and Testing: The candidate should have experience conducting user research and testing.

Problem-Solving Skills: The candidate should be able to identify and solve design problems. They should be able to think critically about user needs and design solutions that meet those needs.
Portfolio: The candidate should have an extensive portfolio that demonstrates their design skills and experience, including examples of their ability to work on large-scale and complex projects.

Strategic Thinking: The candidate should be able to think strategically about user needs and design solutions that meet those needs. They should be able to align UX design strategies with business goals and objectives and be able to make data-driven design decisions.
