Product Designer, Extend

• Experience: 3+ years of professional experience in product design, with a portfolio showcasing shipped work in consumer or B2B software
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Design, HCI, CS, or a related field—or equivalent professional experience showing a strong grasp of design fundamentals and user-centered methodology
• Core Competency: We need a designer who delivers more than just wireframes. You should have a portfolio that demonstrates high-fidelity mastery—specifically in typography, grid systems, and layout. You can translate complex requirements into polished, production-ready Figma files that are as aesthetically "finished" as they are functional
• Systems Thinking: The ability to work within an established design system while identifying opportunities to improve or expand components for the team
• Communication: A clear communicator who can explain the "why" behind design decisions and collaborate effectively with cross-functional partners
• Figma Mastery: Advanced expertise in Figma (auto-layout, components, variables) to maintain visual consistency and build high-fidelity prototypes that feel like the real product
• Technical Literacy: A solid understanding of how designs are implemented in code (HTML/CSS/React basics) to ensure feasible handoffs
• Fintech Curiosity: An understanding of the complexities of financial transactions, fraud prevention, or insurance tech
