Using the latest tech, we design solutions with SMEs in mind and our member-driven financial platform is transforming the business banking market. Not only do we offer our members business accounts and related banking services, but also a comprehensive set of highly connected admin tools for businesses.

Tide is about doing what you love. We’re looking for someone to join us on our exciting scale up journey and be a part of something special. We are wanting passionate Tideans to drive innovation and help build a best-in-class platform to support our members. You will be comfortable in ambiguous situations and will be able to navigate the evolving FinTech environment. Imagine shaping how millions of Tide members discover and engage with business banking platforms and building this on a global scale.

What we’re looking for:

We’re growing our Design System team at Tide, and so we’re looking for a strong UX Designer/Product Designer to join a small team, and report to the Design Systems Lead. Flexing your full range of interaction, visual, and prototyping skills, you will create & lead initiatives that help elevate the overall experience for Tide members and improve how our product teams build day-to-day.

  • Support development teams by ensuring components are built according to design and interaction specifications
  • Work closely with brand teams to ensure brand vision is conveyed in the design system
  • Evaluate and improve usability and accessibility of components, and be a champion for the user
  • Occasionally conduct/participate in user research where relevant to the design system
  • Bring new ideas to the table and define next-generation interfaces raising the bar of design at Tide

What makes you a great fit:

  • 5+ years of experience working in Product teams as a Design System specialist
  • You have a portfolio that shows design systems you have created or largely contributed to and 2+ years of experience working on design systems.
  • Experience designing on multiple platforms (Web, iOS, Android, etc).
  • You are a Figma power-user
  • Excellent presentation and documentation skills
  • Keen eye for visual design / Brand craft
  • You enjoy socialising a design system across an internal organisation. You care about partnering and collaborating through documentation, office hours, and pairing up with fellow designers.
  • You're passionate about creating inclusive & accessible products and have a good understanding of designing for accessibility
  • Able to work independently as well as collaborate with diverse teams in a dynamic, rapid-growth environment.
  • Comfortable working with virtual teams across multiple time zones and geographies
  • You are an open communicator, able to accept and deliver feedback.
  • You leave no stone unturned in your quest for delivery.
  • Early adopter who enjoys staying current on technology, design, and keenly aware of trends
