It all started with an idea at Block in 2013. Initially built to take the pain out of peer-to-peer payments, Cash App has gone from a simple product with a single purpose to a dynamic ecosystem, developing unique financial products, including Afterpay/Clearpay, to provide a better way to send, spend, invest, borrow and save to our 50+ million monthly active customers. We want to redefine the world's relationship with money to make it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible.

Today, Cash App has thousands of employees working globally across office and remote locations, with a culture geared toward innovation, collaboration and impact. We've been a distributed team since day one, and many of our roles can be done remotely from the countries where Cash App operates. No matter the location, we tailor our experience to ensure our employees are creative, productive, and happy.

The Role

The Lending & Commerce design team is focused on building financial products that help customers access credit and flexible payment options, while also helping merchants grow their business.

You'll work on 2 main areas across Afterpay and consumer lending at Cash App:

1. Regulations and compliance

You'll bring clarity and craft to production-heavy design work — ensuring our experiences are compliant, clear and reliable and our design documentation is up to date. You'll also directly enable high-value partnerships which are fundamental to our business growth. This is a unique role that has direct high GPV impact through growing our business, alongside the crucial work to keep us in business, by remaining up to date with ever-changing regulations.

This role is remote, with a preference for West Coast hours to better overlap with our team in Australia.

You Will

• Create high-quality, high-volume production heavy design work — shipping clean, precise UI across Cash App's lending and Afterpay products.
• Translate complex requirements and regulatory guidelines into clear product experiences — quality under constraint.
• Be able to move fast as legal requirements and regulations change, to keep the business and our customers safe.
• Collaborate with product managers, engineers, compliance, sales and legal teams to bring designs to life within tight constraints.
• Support merchant partnerships by scaling existing solutions across new use cases, surfaces, and geographies.

You Have

• 5+ years of experience designing digital products with a emphasis on execution and production work.
• A portfolio that shows care for craft, consistency, and systems thinking — even within highly prescriptive environments.
• A pragmatic mindset — you enjoy making things real and solving for edge cases.
• Interest and satisfaction in scaling design solutions for different partners.
• Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality UI at scale.
• Strong visual design skills and attention to detail.
• Experience working in highly regulated industries with compliance/legal teams.
• Experience working in partnerships, adjusting design solutions for a large range of partners.
• Familiarity with financial services, lending products, or merchant platforms.

Please submit a deck or portfolio of work with your application that showcases your design process from exploratory stages through execution. If your portfolio site requires a password, please provide us with it in your application or on your resume. Thank you!
