Senior Product Designer

Job Description

Delivering great user experiences is one of the core values upon which Recurly has been built. Whether it’s designing a marketing web page or crafting the very user interface our customers rely on to run their businesses, the Design Team is involved at every step. We’re responsible for creating the brand promise customers have in their first interaction with Recurly and ensuring that we deliver on that promise in the product itself. Subscription businesses around the world rely on our product every day to secure critical billing information, invoice and communicate with their customers and evaluate their reporting data. It’s crucial that our brand and product experience communicate confidence and credibility at every step. As a Product Designer at Recurly, you’ll be part of a small but impactful team as you help us evolve the next generation of the product. In your role,, you’ll empathize with our customers’ needs, create scalable design systems, and deliver beautiful and intuitive interfaces. You’ll be called upon to work through design challenges large and small, from the micro interactions of customer onboarding to complex and thorny design problems (like making it easy for our customers in Chicago to apply the correct “amusement tax”). But you won’t do it alone. You’ll work as a partner with product managers, engineers, and other designers putting Design Thinking to work to bring it all to life.
