The Role

To fuel the next stage of our growth journey, Ziina is expanding our world-class design team. We’re looking for an excellent product designer with strong visual skills to join us on our journey to empower residents of the Middle East by providing them with the first customer-centric digital wallet.

We are looking for a product designer passionate about building beautiful products that people love to use. You’ll join the fast-paced team and will be hands-on in all areas of design at Ziina. Focusing primarily on the main product, you will also be expected to help influence the design and product strategy, brand, and visual communications.

As a Product Designer at Ziina you will:

  • Work with data and user feedback to get insights, identify opportunities and problems, and develop elegant solutions for the product with clear success criteria.
  • Come up with new concepts and translate them into user flows and working prototypes ready to be tested with real customers.
  • Take a user-centered design approach and rapidly test and iterate your designs with real users.
  • Work with product managers on putting together interview scripts and participating in testing sessions.
  • Take full ownership of your work and total responsibility for every last detail, every step of the way, from whiteboard sketching to high-fidelity final treatments.
  • Collaborate with the engineering team to figure out technical constraints and to bring your beautiful designs to life.
  • Ask questions, try new things, and constantly learn and improve.
  • Maintain a sky-high bar for all the produced work.

To succeed in this role, you likely:

  • Have 4+ years of experience working in product design
  • Can demonstrate proven design skills, experience shipping products, and understand what it takes to build valuable and meaningful experiences.
  • Have expertise in Figma and prototyping tools such as Framer, Protopie, or Principle.
  • The ability to speak confidently about your own design work and convince others of your reasoning.
  • Understand visual composition, typography, and design heuristics.
  • Good familiarity with Apple HID and Google Material Design guidelines.
  • Knowledge of UX design best practices and standard patterns to design intuitive, user-friendly solutions.
  • Have a strong empathy towards users, willingness to go out in the field, conduct user research, and user testing.
  • You are based in, or willing to relocate to Dubai.

What would amaze us:

  • You take initiative and have a bias towards action.
  • You're tenacious with a strong work ethic.
  • You have the ability to align cross-functional teams around a bold design vision—and ship fast without losing sight of the user
