The Role
You will be hired as a Junior or Mid Product Designer - Mobile as part of the Nex (Experiment) team. As part of the Nex team, enjoy a supportive and tight-knit team of designer, Product Managers, and Engineers based all across SEA, with an open and curiosity-driven design culture that encourages feedback and growing professionally together.
The Experiments Team
The Experiments team builds new products under Nex, Xendit’s Consumer team, that are complementary to our existing suite of digital infrastructure. We take ideas, customer pain points, or gaps in the market and build a new solution from the ground up. This team presents a unique opportunity for people who are looking to build something completely new, rather than improving existing products.
As the name suggests, these products are experimental, meaning they sometimes fail. We’re therefore looking for people who can quickly recognize failure, take feedback, and iterate immediately, even if it means leaving behind our previous dreams of what the product could look like.
This is an opportunity for design generalists to apply their skills in solving problems for multiple segments and work on products to drive the company’s growth.
