Product Designer, KYC & AML

Help build trust into every Spendesk journey

Spendesk helps businesses manage their spending with more control, visibility and efficiency.

As part of the KYC & AML squad , you’ll help improve the onboarding and verification experience. Your work will make it easier for legitimate businesses to join Spendesk, while helping us prevent fraud and meet regulatory requirements.

You’ll work at the intersection of customer experience, compliance, business growth and technology.

Your role

Your main focus will be on solving meaningful product problems within the KYC & AML area. You’ll work closely with Product Managers and Engineers to understand customer needs, explore solutions and deliver valuable improvements to the product.

You will:

• Help shape and improve the KYC, KYB and AML onboarding experience.

• Make complex requirements easier for customers to understand and complete.

• Use research, customer feedback, product data and regulatory context to inform your decisions.

• Explore, prototype and validate different solutions.

• Work with Product and Engineering to assess trade-offs and technical feasibility.

• Contribute to defining success measures and evaluating the impact of your work.

• Design clear, accessible and trustworthy experiences for complex workflows.

• Contribute to the wider Product Design practice through knowledge sharing and constructive feedback.

• Depending on priorities, contribute to the evolution and adoption of Spendesk’s design system.

Design at Spendesk

Designers are strategic partners within cross-functional teams. We collaborate with Product, Engineering, Data, Risk, Compliance and other stakeholders throughout discovery, design, delivery and iteration.

We believe designers should help define the right problem, not simply execute a predefined solution. You’ll be expected to understand the customer and business context, challenge assumptions constructively and make informed trade-offs.

What we’re looking for

• Three or more years of experience designing digital products in cross-functional teams.

• Strong product thinking and the ability to connect user needs, business goals and technical constraints.

• Experience working on complex workflows, data-heavy products or products with multiple user types.

• Experience conducting research and validating solutions with users.

• Ability to use metrics and evidence to inform design decisions and evaluate product impact.

• Strong interaction design and information architecture skills.

• Experience collaborating closely with Product Managers and Engineers.

• Strong communication, organisation and autonomy.

• A pragmatic and structured approach to solving ambiguous problems.

Nice to have

• Experience in fintech, payments, spend management, procurement or other regulated environments.

• Experience with KYC, KYB, AML, identity verification or fraud prevention.

• Experience designing onboarding or conversion-critical journeys.

• Experience with AI-assisted, automated or conversational workflows.

• Experience contributing to a design system or coded component library.

• Experience with experimentation and data-informed product development.

Why join Spendesk?

• Work on a high-impact product area that directly affects customer access and trust.

• Simplify complex financial and regulatory workflows.

• Help shape the future of AI-assisted financial operations.

• Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, Data, Risk and Compliance.

• Join an international and collaborative Product Design team.

• Contribute to a product used by finance teams, managers, employees and administrators around the world.
