About The Position

This role will have cross functional impact, shaping the story we share with customers and influencing product development through the user experience. As a core member of our team, you will report to our EVP of Product and Go to Market, while working closely with the CEO to shape high-stakes slide decks that win over partners and customers. Beyond the product, you own the company’s "narrative assets"—from the corporate website to product mockups and demos, having a direct impact on Skipify’s success.

Requirements

The Bridge: You can speak "Business" with the CEO, "Strategy" with the Product Lead, and "Technical Specs" with the Lead Engineer.
Visual Communicator: You believe a great slide deck or a clean mockup is a powerful sales tool, not just a design task.
Startup-Minded: You thrive in ambiguity and are comfortable pivoting from a high-level UX workshop to updating a landing page in the same afternoon.
Master of Figma: You don't just make things look pretty; you build organized, scalable component libraries and prototypes that feel like real software.
5-8 years experience in design, ideally working on fintech products and digital platforms with deep knowledge of the payments industry, including competitive landscape, market trends, and evolving merchant needs
Exceptional communication skills, with a demonstrated ability to influence internal and external stakeholders.
Ability to work from our New York office 2-3 days per week
You exemplify Skipify values - you have a positive mindset, embrace feedback, and are accountable for what you do.
You take pride in what you do and who you do it with.
You go the extra mile and get things done the right way, with a collaborative spirit that brings others along with you to win together.
You bring your A-game - striving to do your best work; the kind that raises the bar and up-levels those around you.

Figma Prototyping: Own the Figma workspace, creating pixel-perfect mockups and interactive demos that serve as the "blueprints" for the engineering team.
