Senior Product Designer, Truework

Checkr is a company that focuses on providing innovative solutions in the fintech space, particularly in the areas of lending and identity verification.

### What you’ll do - Own design for key Truework product areas across borrower, lender, and internal operational experiences (as applicable), from discovery through launch and iteration. - Partner with Product and Engineering to define problems, shape roadmaps, and deliver high-quality solutions that align user needs with business outcomes. - Simplify complex workflows (verification requests, document collection, consent/authorization, status visibility, exception handling) into clear, user-friendly experiences. - Use AI-assisted design and development tools to rapidly prototype, validate, and—when appropriate—implement lightweight UI changes in code to improve iteration speed and overall product quality. - Design for trust and clarity in a sensitive financial domain—prioritizing transparency, error prevention, accessibility, and confidence-building UI patterns. - Translate insights into outcomes by combining qualitative research, stakeholder input, and product data to propose, test, and refine solutions. - Create thoughtful interaction and visual design across responsive web and/or platform surfaces, producing clear specs and assets for engineering. - Facilitate alignment with workshops, design reviews, and strong storytelling—helping teams move from ambiguity to decisions. - Collaborate cross-functionally with partners such as Customer Success, Sales, Compliance/Legal, Data, and Operations to ensure designs work in the real world. - Contribute to design systems and standards to improve consistency, speed, and quality across Truework.

### What you bring - 5–8+ years of product design experience (or equivalent), with a strong track record of shipping high-quality work. - Your portfolio demonstrates end-to-end thinking: problem framing, exploration, rationale, collaboration, iteration, and measurable impact. - Comfort working in complex domains where edge cases matter, and ability to distill complexity into simple, usable flows. - Strong product instincts—balance user needs, business goals, technical constraints, and timeline realities. - Experience in collaborative, cross-functional environments, influencing decisions through clarity rather than authority. - Ability to independently plan and execute lightweight research (interviews, usability testing, concept validation) and partner effectively with researchers when available. - Attention to detail: interaction patterns, content clarity, information hierarchy, and accessibility best practices. - A strong bias for action: raise the bar, move with urgency, stay resilient through ambiguity, and take ownership to deliver meaningful outcomes. ### Nice to have - Experience in fintech, lending, mortgage, identity, compliance-heavy, or other high-trust regulated spaces. - Experience designing B2B / B2B2C products, especially workflows used by operations teams or external partners. - Familiarity with design systems, documentation, and scalable component thinking. - Experience designing for secure data, consent, and privacy-forward user experiences.
