About the team and role

Help us redefine the future of financial reporting! In the Reporting and Reconciliation domain, we are actively moving away from outdated, static reports and fragmented data exports. Instead, this is your opportunity to design a holistic, one-stop-shop experience that simplifies how merchants interact with their finances. You will tackle high-impact design challenges by unifying complex financial data into a single, intuitive workflow. By giving users the tools to easily customize and consume the insights they need, you will directly empower them to better understand their business, reduce their daily operational burden, and efficiently close their books at the end of each month.

What you’ll do

Deeply understand and own the user experience (UX) for complex product ecosystems. Take ownership of broad, undefined problem spaces within the financial domain. You will not only design the solution, but help define the problem, creating a clear strategic vision that balances user needs with regulatory and technical constraints.
Partner closely with Product, Technology, and Data Analytics teams to jointly articulate a cohesive short-term tactical roadmap and a compelling long-term strategic vision for our products.
Drive data-informed enterprise design, leveraging insights to design for the specific needs of B2B and enterprise users. You will balance the density of information required by financial controllers with intuitive usability.
Proactively raise the bar for quality across the product experience, spanning design, research, and content, while streamlining processes and maximizing team efficiency to help Adyen reach its full potential.
Strategically document and share work in progress, ensuring maximum transparency and maintaining critical alignment across all dependent teams.
Effectively articulate solution decisions, methodologies, and the tangible value they deliver to the PX team, cross-functional partners (Product, Engineering, Data analytics), and senior business stakeholders.
Mentor, coach, and inspire fellow team members by setting new, elevated standards of design quality and actively driving strategic knowledge sharing across the entire organization.
