Product Designer

About The Role

In the realm of SME financing, credit isn't merely a financial product, but a vital factor enabling growth—such as hiring new staff instead of losing out on peak business seasons due to prolonged invoice cycles. SILQFi is developing innovative embedded Buy Now Pay Later and Supply Chain Finance infrastructure tailored to the practical realities of B2B commerce.

We are seeking a Founding Product Designer to craft an exceptional Buyer App experience within B2B fintech—an experience robust enough to serve as a foundation for our broader future banking functionalities. The local B2B fintech landscape lags in user experience; this position offers an opportunity to significantly elevate it through outstanding design.

As our first dedicated designer, you'll collaborate closely with the Head of Product and VP Growth without intermediary managers, allowing you direct influence over critical design decisions. Your mission is to bring the quality and finesse of B2C design to the B2B environment, empowering first-time borrowers with clarity and confidence during pivotal moments such as credit application, repayment schedule comprehension, and payment failure notifications.

Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of the Buyer App experience across platforms, enabling SME onboarding within five minutes and providing finance managers clear insights into credit usage across product lines on web and mobile.
• Integrate and tailor effective UX/UI design patterns established by consumer credit services worldwide (e.g., Klarna, Affirm, Tabby, Tamara) for applicability within B2B and the local market context.
• Create and maintain a modern, cohesive design system characterized by ample white space and rounded edges, ensuring consistency across the Buyer App, merchant panel, and integrated touchpoints.
• Design interfaces that foster trust by clearly communicating loan details to merchants unfamiliar with credit, balancing transparency with simplicity.
• Establish scalable design standards, processes, and quality benchmarks as the product expands towards comprehensive banking solutions.

What We Are Looking For

• Experience designing products in high-stakes domains such as financial services, healthcare, or enterprise software where user confusion can result in tangible losses.
• Proven track record of delivering launched products from ambiguous initial concepts to production environments.
• A deep empathy for end-users who may find financial terminology intimidating, with a focus on making them feel assured and supported.
• Ability to navigate uncertainty and act swiftly in design decisions typically made through direct conversations rather than formal committees.

Skills That Distinguish You

• Specialized experience in Buy Now Pay Later or consumer fintech design, particularly involving credit, repayment, and trust-building flows.
• Proficiency in Right-to-Left (RTL) design for Arabic-language interfaces, which is highly desirable due to the regional user base.
• Hands-on experience creating new design systems from the ground up and enforcing compliance within teams.

Why Join Us?

• Opportunity to be the pioneering designer on a live, expanding product with direct influence over its evolution.
• Direct access to company leadership, enabling real ownership without hierarchical barriers.
• Contribute to projects that will lay the groundwork for future comprehensive banking services beyond an individual app.
