Snap Finance is hiringUI/UX Designer

Description

Snap Finance is a rapidly growing FinTech company focused on digital disruption in the $1+ trillion financial services industry. Our proprietary technology platform and machine-learning decisioning algorithms are changing the face and pace of consumer retail finance. FinTech is the combination of technology and finance and is at the forefront of the next generation of emerging disruptive technologies with the ability to democratize the lending process for all consumers. Snap has a strong supportive culture and is dedicated to its customers, merchant partners, and team members.

One of Snap’s company values is to “Invite the Ideas.” This happens by creating a dynamic culture where team members are treated with trust, respect, and dignity.

Snap knows that happy, empowered, and engaged team members are essential to innovation and business success – especially when they enjoy working together, pushing and challenging each other to achieve amazing results. Snap’s approach works! With low employee turnover and exceptional customer service KPIs and reviews, 82% of Snap’s customers would recommend Snap to a close friend or family member, and over a third of Snap’s customers are repeat customers.
