Senior Specialist, Product Experience Design

Mastercard Payment Services is looking for a high-impact Product Experience Designer to join Nordic Product Development. This is a senior specialist role for someone who wants to shape new payment products from early idea to signed-off concept — translating customer needs, market insights, research and business opportunities into compelling concepts, prototypes and product experiences.

• Product discovery and experience design from early idea to validated concept — framing problems, mapping journeys, ideating solutions, prototyping and testing.


• Translate customer, consumer and market insights into sharper value propositions, stronger product concepts and clearer investment recommendations.


• Create high-quality prototypes, flows, wireframes and design artefacts in Figma, using Mastercard’s design system to deliver consistent, scalable product experiences.


• Turn research, studies and test results into practical improvements to the UX, customer journey, concept and commercial proposition.


• Contribute to pitch decks, business cases and commercial analysis by making concepts tangible, user value clear and opportunities easy to understand.


• Facilitate design sprints, co-creation sessions, event storming workshops and customer-facing discovery activities.


• Partner with Product Development, Product Management and Engineering to ensure concepts are desirable, viable, feasible and ready for delivery handover.


• Define high-level experience requirements, user flows, business requirements and acceptance criteria that give development teams clear product direction.


• Use an AI-native mindset to accelerate discovery, prototyping, research synthesis and communication without compromising quality.


• Own assigned products and initiatives with curiosity, structure and drive — helping teams move from ambiguity to clear, testable direction.

• You have strong experience as a UX Designer, UI Designer or Product Designer, preferably working on mobile, web, payments, commerce or other digital product experiences.


• You are highly skilled in Figma and confident working with design systems, reusable patterns and scalable design practices.


• You consider yourself AI-native and use AI deliberately to increase speed, improve quality and unlock new ways of working.


• You know how to translate customer needs, research, test results and business goals into prototypes, journeys, concepts and product recommendations.


• You have planned or facilitated design sprints, co-creation sessions, event storming or similar collaborative discovery formats.


• You have strong storytelling and presentation skills and can explain design choices in a way that creates alignment and buy-in across senior stakeholders, product teams and technology partners.


• You are structured, commercially curious and interested in understanding the technical side of the product well enough to make better design decisions.


• Experience in payments, eCommerce, consumer payments or commerce is a strong advantage — especially if you have helped build a new product from the ground up.


• You are comfortable working in agile environments and collaborating closely with product owners, developers, architects and commercial teams.


• You are fluent in English and available for occasional short-term travel.
