Product Designer

It all started out of frustration in the queue of the local Western Union agent. The queue was long, the fees were high and the flexibility was non-existent. A group of friends lamented. Some people lament over problems; others try to find solutions. The friends saw an opportunity, and soon thereafter Transfer Galaxy was born.

We are still a company full of problem solvers, using technology to make remittances fast, easy, and safe. Our customers use Transfer Galaxy to send money to their loved ones across the world in seconds. Straight to a mobile wallet. From Stockholm to Mogadishu, London to Accra, Berlin to Beirut.

We’re looking for an experienced product designer to join our team and help define the direction of our product as we scale. You’ll be joining us at an exciting time as we add new markets and expand the services we offer. Over the next year, our design priorities include developing our design system, strengthening localisation, and launching experiments to support growth.

You’ll be part of a cross-functional product team comprised of product managers, product designers, content designers, and several engineers. You’ll tackle inconsistencies across our platforms (iOS, Android, web) and make data-informed decisions that strengthen the usability of our product. You’ll help define what our products and services will look and behave like, working alongside stakeholders as varied as legal, marketing, and community managers. You’ll join us in taking on hard customer problems and defining strategy.
