Senior Product Designer - 3 month contract

Remitly's Receivers team is a startup within Remitly building the experience for 30 million new customers in emerging markets—people who will meet Remitly first as recipients, not as senders. We move at a startup pace: scrappy, fast, minimal red tape, high responsibility per person. About the Role Senior Product Designer (Contract) working 3 months, 40 hours per week. Prefer Seattle-based hire, hybrid 2–3 days a week; remote open for the right candidate, with some travel. Responsibilities Own design end-to-end across product UX (flows, wireframes, prototypes, full-fidelity UI) and product marketing assets for the Receivers experience. Use AI tools fluently—Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT—for rapid prototyping, research, content generation, and analysis. Translate AI-driven prototypes into polished Figma work that respects the existing design system and localization processes. Make sense of ambiguous, complex problems and shape them into clear design directions without waiting for a perfect brief. Conduct concept testing and customer interviews to validate direction; synthesize qualitative and quantitative insights to inform decisions. Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and other Designers—communicating progress, risks, and trade-offs clearly. Bring a strong point of view to design and product conversations, and push back when you believe a decision will let customers down. Document decisions and hand off cleanly so the team can pick up and maintain the work after the engagement ends. Qualifications Required 7+ years of product design experience, including ownership of outcomes from problem framing through ship. A strong portfolio showing shipped, customer-facing work with clear before/after, specific contribution, and high attention to interaction and visual craft. Expert-level Figma skills and fluency designing and prototyping complex workflows. Experience executing within an existing design system and a localization process. Experience conducting concept testing and customer interviews independently. Strong written and verbal communication; comfort with high autonomy and high responsibility. Track record of designing both product UX and product marketing assets, or clear ability to flex across both. Nice to Have Multilingual ability—Spanish or other languages—to support customer interviews abroad. Experience designing for emerging markets, global audiences, or first-time digital users. Background in fintech, payments, or other consumer financial products. Prior contract or agency experience designing for consumer mobile and web. Experience designing accessibility-conscious and compliance-aware consumer experiences. Compensation Hourly range: $100–$120. EEO Statement Remitly is an equal opportunity employer.
