Product Designer

We are Design at PhonePe

 

We are a group of enthusiastic makers who are determined to create a dent in the Fintech Universe. We are a team of dreamers, artists, designers, writers, inventors and communication experts who are always keenly looking towards building new and innovative products and experiences. We want to make financial services and personal finance as intuitive and inclusive as possible. At the same time, we want to inspire, provoke and motivate Indian consumers and businesses to embrace digital payments into their lives. This will enable the Indian consumers to meet their financial goals and help merchants grow their business more easily. It is our unflinching belief that user focus is what will help us build great products. With great experiences.

 

We are looking for

 

We are looking for designers who are as passionate about strategy as they are about craft. You should be able to collaborate well with both internal and external design stakeholders. And at the same time you should be someone who takes accountability and responsibility seriously.

We are looking for someone with the following qualities:

• 1 - 3 years of experience in Digital Product Design. Working on consumer products would be an additional advantage. BTW, it doesn't really matter if you are not from fintech, but we certainly don't mind it if you are!
• An obsession to create intuitive and beautiful products and experiences that simply work. We will require a portfolio of work to judge this. But don’t worry, we won’t judge your designer OCD.
• An expert at your craft. Which means you know the difference between user flows, task flows & IA diagrams and can endlessly argue about the relative merits of Figma, Sketch and XD. It would be a bonus if you know exactly how to create super cool micro-interactions using any tool like Principle, AfterEffects or ProtoPie.
• A collaborative team player who can work well with Product, Engineering, Business and CX teams to ensure that everyone is aligned with the design vision.
• You should have shipped products and if they have done well you should know why. But if they have not done well, we expect you to be able to lecture people on how to avoid the pitfalls.
• You should have the ability to talk business. And no, we do not expect you to wear a suit.

 

Once here you will:

 

• Creating fantastic products starts with obsessing about the ‘Why’ and backing it up with a solid understanding of user needs and behaviour. So do expect a lot of good quality heated discussions and we want someone who is able to walk up to a whiteboard (or online board) and sketch out ideas and solutions.
• These ideas and solutions would need to be built into robust user flows that would take care of every conceivable use case and condition.
• Flows are nothing if they are not translated into screens that are consistent, intuitive but at the same time factor in delight.
• Finally working with the Product and Engineering teams to bring the designs into reality is a crucial part of the designer’s journey.
• However at PhonePe a designer’s journey does not end there. We are looking at designers who are obsessed with numbers and can track both growth and usability issues just by looking at the numbers.

 

Qualifications:

 

• At least a degree in Design, HCI, Human Factors or related fields or equivalent practical experience. Master’s or PhD will be given preference.
• 1 -3 years of experience in a Consumer Product Design, UX Research or a Product Design Services setting.
• Strong fundamentals of visual design and good application of UX principles.
• Experience designing consumer products
• Expert communicator and story-teller

 

So the question is, do you think the points mentioned above describe you to a tee? If so, get in touch with us. Not only will you find the work satisfying, you will also be part of one of India’s fastest growing companies. And together we will be able to build one of the finest brands to have come out of India.
