Who is Credible?

We believe life’s changes create financial needs for people and that the traditional financial system often puts up unnecessary obstacles. People celebrate major milestones like going to college, getting married, and buying a home. And most of the time, these milestones come with financial implications.

 At Credible, we have built a company with the mission of bringing transparency, choice, simple processes and savings to accessing credit for life’s important moments. What you see is what you get. We are committed to being upfront, honest, and clear about your options. There are no mysteries, no hidden fees, and no secret clauses.

 Credible is a fast-growing Fintech company that has world class management, has raised multiple rounds of funding, is generating significant revenue and is disrupting the lending market and helping people save money and get out of debt faster.

 

About the role

We are looking for an inspired, collaborative, creative Product Designer (Contract) to join our team.

You will:

• Design interactive, rich web experiences across desktop and mobile.
• Drive end-to-end design projects to improve existing products and to develop new features.
• Participate in all aspects of the design process – ideation, market and user research, wireframing, prototyping and high fidelity design production.
• Produce pixel perfect design documentation for engineers to implement.
• Find simple and elegant solutions to complex user flows.
• Work effectively cross-functionally, with product, design, engineering, marketing and operations teams.
• Work in a dynamic start-up environment where opportunity for ownership and impact is significant.
• Be independent, reliable and respectful.

Education and Experience:

• 2+ years of progressive experience in product design, web design, UI/UX design and/or art direction with a focus on web and mobile consumer products is required.
• Bachelor's degree in Web Design, Graphic Design, UI/UX, HCI or a related field.
• A beautiful, inspiring portfolio that demonstrates real life experience with interaction models, customer flows, style guides, and prototypes for web and/or mobile products.
• Strong, demonstrated visual design aptitude – a great sense for color, form, typography and other design elements is shown in your work.
• Deep knowledge of design tools - Photoshop, Sketch, Illustrator, Figma and any other tools needed to get the job done.
• Experience executing full cycle user research processes is a plus – everything from personas and ethnographic research to surveys, interviews and usability testing.
• Meticulous attention to detail and strong project management skills.
• Experience with HTML and CSS nice to have.
