Job Description: Product Designer

Cardtonic is Africa’s leading platform for Virtual Dollar Cards, gift card trading, bill payments, and gadgets. Millions already trust us to power their payments — but behind every seamless experience is intentional, human-centered design.

We’re looking for a Product Designer who can craft intuitive, visually stunning, and user-friendly experiences that make complex fintech tools feel effortless. This isn’t just about pretty interfaces; it’s about designing systems that solve real problems and empower millions across Africa.

Who We’re Looking For

Someone who believes great design is more than aesthetics — it’s empathy, strategy, and clarity brought to life. You understand user journeys, thrive on feedback, and balance creativity with practicality. If you can turn ideas into beautiful, functional experiences that scale, you’ll feel right at home here.

What We Expect From You

  • Designing intuitive user interfaces and crafting seamless user experiences across web and mobile.
  • Collaborating closely with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders to translate ideas into impactful products.
  • Conducting user research, usability testing, and translating insights into actionable design improvements.
  • Developing wireframes, prototypes, and high-fidelity visuals that align with our product goals.
  • Maintaining and evolving Cardtonic’s design system to ensure consistency and scalability.
  • Delivering designs that balance aesthetics, performance, and business objectives.
  • Iterating quickly based on feedback and data — shipping fast, learning faster.
  • Documenting design processes, rationale, and guidelines for cross-team alignment.
  • Staying informed about the latest trends, tools, and best practices in product and UI/UX design.

Product Designer Requirements:

  • Proven experience as a Product Designer, UX/UI Designer, or similar role.
  • Strong portfolio showcasing design thinking, visual design, and product problem-solving.
  • Proficiency with design tools such as Figma, Adobe XD, or Sketch.
  • Deep understanding of design systems, user flows, and responsive design principles.
  • Experience collaborating closely with developers (especially React.js & Node.js teams).
  • Comfort with conducting and interpreting user research, data analytics, and A/B testing.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
  • Excellent communication skills — you can explain design choices and rationale clearly.
  • At least three years of experience in a product design role.
  • Availability to support urgent product or UI updates when needed.

Why Join Us?

At Cardtonic, design isn’t decoration — it’s how we connect with millions of users daily. You’ll be part of a team that values creativity, clarity, and collaboration. Every pixel you place and every flow you craft helps shape the future of fintech in Africa.
