Location: Montreal, Quebec (HQ); open to other locations in Eastern Canada.

Responsibilities

- Own end‐to‐end design for core point‐of‐sale experiences, from problem framing to polished, shipped product.
- Make complicated flows feel simple: distill dense, high‐frequency merchant workflows into clear, fast, confidence‐inspiring experiences.
- Design with real‐world constraints as creative fuel – partner closely with engineering to find solutions that are both excellent and feasible in mature, at‐scale systems.
- Ground decisions in evidence: drive your own research and testing with real merchants.
- Think in systems: strengthen consistency across the wider point‐of‐sale portfolio, contributing patterns and improvements back to our shared design system.
- Multiply the team: mentor other designers, raise the bar through critique, and bring a point of view that makes the work around you better.

at‐scale products – with judgment to know when to simplify, modernize, or leave well enough alone.
- A track record of partnering with engineering to navigate technical constraints and still ship excellent work.
- Fluency with prototyping and research methods to validate decisions and shape product direction.
- Active use of AI tools in design workflow, and curiosity about how they're changing the craft.
- Strong communication skills – able to build alignment with cross‐functional, global partners.
