Check is looking for a Senior Product Designer to untangle complex systems and shape sophisticated products at a foundational level. You will translate complex payroll systems into intuitive user experiences and transform Check Console into the best platform for operating a payroll business.
What You'll Do
- Own the end-to-end design of major product enhancements within Check Console, from problem framing through shipped experience.
- Translate complex payroll systems into intuitive user experiences, shaping everything from interaction models to product architecture.
- Partner closely with engineering and product leaders to design surfaces and workflows that simplify the complex realities of payroll operations.
- Identify opportunities to rethink existing product patterns and drive improvements that make Console significantly more intuitive and efficient for operators.
- Conduct user research — including direct conversations with payroll operators and platform partners — to uncover insights and validate design decisions.
- Elevate the visual and interaction design of existing product surfaces to create a more cohesive, intuitive, and delightful experience.
- Prototype and iterate quickly on new ideas, incorporating feedback from users and cross-functional teams.
- Contribute to the evolution of Check’s product design standards and help raise the overall bar for design across the company.
- Collaborate with marketing and creative teams to socialize platform enhancements to existing partners and future prospects.
What We're Looking For
- 6–10+ years of experience in product design, UX/UI design, or a similar role designing complex software products.
- Strong UX instincts and the ability to simplify complex systems, workflows, and data-heavy interfaces.
- Experience designing workflow-driven products or operational software (fintech, developer tools, enterprise platforms, or similar).
- A portfolio demonstrating both systems thinking and strong visual design craft.
- Experience collaborating closely with engineering teams and designing within technical constraints.
- Ability to independently drive ambiguous design problems from discovery through shipped product.
- Experience conducting or leading user research and translating insights into product improvements.
- Experience designing for multi-step workflows and complex user journeys.
- Comfort working in fast-moving environments where designers often own broad problem spaces.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to clearly articulate design decisions and tradeoffs.
