About The Team

The Payments team sits within Etsy's broader Trust group. On the Payments team, this contractor will join 2 other designers to support across 7 pods. The type of projects ranges from ensuring sellers get paid, to keeping our sellers compliant with changing regulations, to ensuring that buyers can checkout and transact.

About The Role

This person would join our Payments initiative, alongside 2 other designers. Our payments work spans both the buyer and seller-sides of the marketplace.

You'd be expected to represent design in cross-functional pod meetings, like standups and backlog grooming. There you'd be accountable for accurately representing design status, ensuring smooth handoff to engineers, and oversight during the development stage of work.

You will also operate within an existing Product Design culture. There you'll be leveraging our design system, working with our UX Foundations to expand patterns if needed, and participating in crit to ensure your work is meeting our quality bar.

You will be a thought partner to product, anticipating the range of use-cases and edge-cases of your projects. And you'll be a guide to engineers as they build and deliver your projects, ensuring the shipped product is aligned with the designs you deliver.
