Job Description

Balance is a fast-growing B2B payments platform helping companies simplify their selling process in all stages. We build flexible, secure, and scalable payment solutions that improve cash flow and reduce friction in complex financial workflows.

We’re looking for a Product Designer who brings strong craft, product intuition, and ownership. You’ll take the lead on meaningful product areas, shape experiences end-to-end, and partner closely with Product and Engineering to deliver high-impact solutions.

Responsibilities

• Own design for key product areas—from discovery to polished execution
• Act as a thought partner in shaping product direction—not just executing on specs
• Partner with Product Managers and Engineers to define problems, shape strategy, and deliver impactful solutions
• Turn complex financial workflows (e.g. payments, reconciliation, approvals, credit flows) into simple, intuitive, and scalable experiences
• Lead design processes including research, ideation, prototyping, and validation
• Use qualitative and quantitative insights (user research, analytics, experiments) to guide decisions
• Design with clear success metrics in mind (adoption, conversion, efficiency, revenue impact)
• Create high-quality UX/UI deliverables: flows, wireframes, and high-fidelity designs
• Contribute to and evolve our design system to support scalability across complex product surfaces
• Work closely with engineering to ensure high-quality implementation and thoughtful trade-offs
• Raise the bar for design quality through feedback, critique, and collaboration
• Explore and integrate AI into product experiences and internal design workflows where it meaningfully improves outcomes

Requirements

• 4–7+ years of experience in product design, ideally in B2B or fintech environments
• Strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end ownership and measurable product impact
• Excellent UX thinking with strong visual and interaction design skills
• Experience designing for complex B2B products (multi-step workflows, edge cases, power users)
• Ability to independently lead projects while aligning with broader product strategy
• Proficiency in modern design tools (Figma or similar) and AI tools
• Experience working in cross-functional teams in fast-paced environments
• Strong communication skills—able to clearly explain decisions and influence stakeholders
• Experience using research and/or data to inform design decisions
• Attention to detail with a high bar for quality
