Product designer

What help do we want?

• Spend time with our new and existing customers to learn about their workflow, company, struggles, needs and motivations.

• Work with product managers to determine requirements, articulate user needs, and translate those needs into concepts and elegant interface designs.

• Work with engineers to deal with technical constraints for projects.

• Develop and maintain interaction models, user flows, wireframes, screen designs, prototypes and specifications as needed.

• Ensure design consistency across all platforms and products, and collaborate with fellow designers to constantly refine Salv design language.

• Communicate the thinking and deliverables to stakeholders and implementers clearly and convincingly.

• Educate fellow team members about the purpose, process, and tools of research and design.

What skills will make you successful:

People-y skills

• You can work on your own, but also know when to reach out to fellow team members for help, advice, and support.

• You have strong communication skills. You speak and write clearly.

• You’re flexible, adaptable, and willing to learn.

• You’re constantly pushing yourself to improve.

• You keep your cool under pressure. You take charge in challenging situations and you keep your composure if things get tense.

Research-y and design-y skills

• You understand that the job of design is to serve our customers. You enjoy speaking with real people about their complex workflows.

• You are curious about our business and the whole area of financial crime fighting and AML. We don’t expect you to be an AML expert, but we do expect you to learn some basic things. Have no fear– we have many friendly experts who will help.

• You have some experience working as a UI/UX designer, ideally in enterprise/B2B.

• You have used various design tools, and have opinions about them. We currently mostly use Figma and Miro.

• You have a portfolio showcasing previous work.

• You know what all of these words mean, and have done many of them as part of your work: interaction design, user research, usability testing, visual design, information design, interactive prototyping, accessibility.

• Not strictly required but a plus: you have a relevant university degree in human-computer interaction, interaction design, graphic design, industrial design, or software engineering.

What does success look like after 6 months?

You have built something

• You have spent time with customers and learned about their workflows and current struggles with Salv product and other tools.

• You have applied this knowledge to design a new feature for a Salv product.

• You have collaborated with engineers to get this feature built, understanding both the engineering and design sides of our interface toolkit (and modified the toolkit if needed).

You have grown our team

• You understand the character, tools and projects of other designers, and can cover for each other if needed.

• You have established yourself as a valuable partner to Product Managers and engineers.

Location
