Advancing Product Designer – Zeraki Finance
Description
● Deliver user-centered designs for small to moderate features—wireframes, mockups, and prototypes—using Zeraki’s design system.
● Design clear and usable journeys for common finance tasks like fee payment, reconciliation, and approvals.
● Apply mobile-first principles, with a focus on low bandwidth and shared device scenarios.
● Collaborate with PMs and engineers throughout the product design process—problem framing, hypothesis creation, flows, wireframes, handoff, and QA.
● Contribute to team critiques and actively apply feedback to improve clarity, usability, and context alignment.
● Incorporate accounting knowledge (e.g., double-entry basics, reconciliation processes) into your design flows for accuracy and relevance.
● Test your designs on real devices and iterate based on stakeholder or user feedback.
● Track usability impact post-launch and support continuous improvement.
What We’re Looking For
1–2 years experience in UX/UI design or interaction design.
Familiarity with basic accounting/finance workflows (e.g., reconciling payments, ledgers, cash flow tracking).
Comfortable using Figma, and familiar with design systems and responsive layouts.
Demonstrated ability to create simple, clear user flows.
Strong communication skills—able to present design work clearly to teammates and stakeholders.
A user-first mindset, with empathy for African school contexts (offline use, mobile-first, low-literacy).
Nice to Have
Experience working on fintech or operations tools.
Exposure to user testing or usability research.
Background working with schools or education systems in Africa.
