About The Position

Nu is hiring a Staff Product Designer for its Global Credit Card, Credit Builder team. Credit Builder is an entry-level credit product that lets customers add money to unlock spending power and guides them toward a full credit limit. Its experience uses a guided timeline and gamification to help customers build healthy credit habits. The product currently operates in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia, with plans to expand Credit Builder and related products into additional countries, potentially including the US. The designer will be one of the most senior designers in the group, contributing to a major revamp of the core Credit Builder experience as well as ongoing product work. The role calls for setting a high bar for visual craft, interaction design, and motion while creating global systems that can adapt to local regulations, culture, and market constraints. The designer will also mentor junior designers and collaborate with product, engineering, research, business analysis, and market design teams.

Exceptional visual and interaction design craft, strong systems thinking, and comfort with motion.
Proven experience designing complex products; experience in fintech, financial services, regulated settings, or multi-market settings is especially relevant.

Excellent stakeholder management across countries, time zones, and functions, with the ability to align global and local partners.
A low-ego, hands-on mindset and willingness to contribute across products and markets.
Experience mentoring designers and raising the quality of a team's work.
A portfolio demonstrating depth of craft and the thinking behind the work.

Nice To Haves

Spanish and/or Portuguese language skills.
Experience with gamification, behavior-change design, or financial-education products.

Willingness to travel occasionally to work in person with market teams; team leadership typically visits partners about twice a year.

Responsibilities

Lead design for Credit Builder and related underserved-credit products across Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and new markets, including the US.
Drive the upcoming revamp of the Credit Builder experience, raising the bar for visual craft, interaction design, and motion.
Design global solutions that work as one system while adapting to local regulatory requirements, cultural contexts, and market-specific constraints.
Advance gamification and financial-coaching patterns to help customers understand credit and build it.
Mentor and develop junior designers through critiques and day-to-day collaboration.
Partner with product managers, engineers, business analysts, a dedicated researcher, market design teams, and adjacent teams such as Growth, Core, and Collections.
