About the role

the experience you shape will define how schools and districts move money safely and confidently.
The ideal candidate is a strategic problem solver with strong UX and UI craft who is comfortable operating with ambiguity and minimal hand-holding in a fast-paced B2B SaaS environment.
Map and simplify complex workflows- turn multi-step payment, approval, and disbursement flows into clear end-to-end journeys, wireframes, mockups, and clickable prototypes that communicate concepts and de-risk decisions early.

You will own discovery from first principles-framing the problem, running the research, and pressure-testing concepts-then carry the work through to polished, accessible delivery and post-launch iteration.
Own discovery end-to-end- frame the problem, define research questions, and lead a rigorous UX research and concept-testing process that validates real demand before significant build investment.
Conduct user research and usability testing- plan and run moderated and unmoderated studies with bookkeepers, district staff, and other stakeholders to validate assumptions and inform design decisions.
Design accessible interfaces for web and mobile- deliver intuitive, elegant, WCAG-conscious experiences using a test-and-learn approach across desktop and mobile.
Produce precise specifications- create detailed design specs and partner with Engineering to ensure accurate, high-quality implementation.
Contribute to KEV's design system- use, extend, and help evolve shared patterns and components to ensure consistency across products.
Communicate and align- present design work clearly to cross-functional teams and stakeholders, and build shared understanding around direction and trade-offs.
Drive design from discovery through delivery- own ePay and adjacent initiatives across the full lifecycle, from requirements and flow definition through implementation and post-launch iteration, driving high-quality outcomes.

Demonstrated ownership of discovery: you are comfortable framing ambiguous problems, scoping the work, and driving from research through delivery with minimal direction.

Strong UX and UI craft with a keen eye for detail and accessibility across desktop and mobile platforms.
Deep experience with UX methodologies, user research, prototyping, and usability testing, including moderated research.
Advanced proficiency in design tools such as Figma, plus comfort with rapid prototyping.
Strategic product thinking with the ability to balance user needs, business goals, and technical and compliance constraints.
5+ years of experience as a Product Designer, with a track record of leading initiatives end-to-end-ideally within a B2B SaaS environment.
