• Ship a meaningful Partner Portal redesign and establish reusable enterprise patterns and design system additions
• Define a design direction and reusable page system for paybis.com, then ship the corporate website using that system
• Ship or develop the corporate account design direction and make integration and KYB onboarding measurably easier to complete

• 8+ Years designing digital products end to end, including substantial experience at senior, staff or principal level
• Have shipped products used by real users
• Deep experience with complex B2B, enterprise or infrastructure products, including dashboards, admin and partner-facing tools, data-heavy workflows, configuration, and permissions
• Experience in fintech, payments, crypto, or another regulated domain, with an understanding of compliance-first design, trust and security signals, and transaction flows
• Full autonomy and ownership of the design process and its results, from problem definition and direction through execution, handoff, and post-launch performance
• Able to operate without a brief, make decisions amid ambiguity, sequence work independently, and proceed without waiting for a design lead to unblock or review it
• Strong UI craft in typography, layout, grid, hierarchy, density, colour, and state design; strong UX judgement
• High-fidelity prototyping skills covering motion, states, and interaction
• Expert-level Figma design systems practice, including building and extending tokens, components, and variants
• Use qualitative research, quantitative signals, and experimentation, and interpret data carefully
• Proactively identify and frame opportunities, define the metric to move, and push proposals onto the roadmap
• Communicate clearly in English, write well, present decisions directly, engage constructively with PMs and engineers, and reconsider decisions when presented with stronger arguments
• Use AI thoughtfully for exploration, iteration, and validation, with sound judgement about its limitations
• Portfolio must include at least one in-depth case study of a complex B2B or enterprise product, covering constraints, decisions, shipped work, and impact
• Portfolio must include end-to-end web work on a corporate or marketing site; UI craft will be assessed from the screens
