Senior Product Designer, Payments

At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.

The Payments XD team builds the core infrastructure that enables members to sign up, stay subscribed, and confidently resolve issues. We tackle everything from the initial signup flow to payment recovery and long-term billing systems, all with a sharp focus on platform architecture and global commerce innovation. 

About The Role

We are looking for a highly autonomous and systems-minded Senior Product Designer to join the Payments XD team, focusing on Payments Acquisition & Platform.

You will own the core payment experiences that introduce millions of new members to our service globally, shaping the foundation of our international expansion and product growth. This role is a unique intersection of foundational systems thinking and high-visibility growth initiatives.

The Payments XD team is responsible for ensuring that every payment experience, from signing up in a new market to interfacing with new lines of business (like Offers or Live), is seamless, trustworthy, and locally relevant for millions of members around the world.

Core Responsibilities

• Lead the Design Strategy for Global Acquisition: Design and optimize the end-to-end payment experiences for new members signing up for the first time, ensuring highly localized, high-conversion flows across various platforms and payment methods worldwide.

• Evolve Payments Platform: Champion the evolution of Payments as a Service, thinking beyond singular flows into design frameworks, scalable platform components, and repeatable excellence to support new lines of business.

• Enable New Market and Product Launches: Partner directly with Regional teams, Engineering, and Product Management to understand complex financial, regulatory, and technical requirements to launch compliant, reliable payment experiences in new high-priority markets.

• System Foundation: Own and contribute to the foundation of our payments design system: defining archetypes, setting patterns, and driving consistency that scales across all payment methods and markets.

• Drive Cross-Functional Commerce Innovation: Act as the Payments design partner to new lines of business. You will define how payment methods are integrated and presented within these new product ecosystems, ensuring alignment with the core commerce architecture.

• Simplify Global Complexity: Synthesize massive amounts of regulatory, localization, and technical constraints into elegant, simple, and trustworthy user flows that build confidence during the checkout and signup process.

About You

• 7+ years of product design experience, with a background in designing large-scale systems and platforms.

• Demonstrated Expertise in Cross-Functional Influence: Proven ability to partner with engineering, product management, and business stakeholders, acting as a strategic thought partner rather than just an executor.

• Deep Systems Thinking: Highly skilled at solving for scale by creating reusable, foundational components and patterns that can be adopted by multiple downstream product teams.

• Experience in Global/Localization: Familiarity with the unique design challenges inherent in international product expansion.

• Mastery of Simplification: You thrive in ambiguous environments and can take highly complex, technical, or regulated processes and translate them into clear, inclusive, and seamless user experiences.

• Domain experience designing for payments, e-commerce, financial services, or global platforms is not required, but a strong plus.
