Product Designer, Retail Classic

Staff Product Designer – Retail Point-of-Sale Design Team

Location: Montreal (HQ) preferred, open to other locations in eastern Canada. Working in-office alongside the team.

• Own end-to-end design for core point-of-sale experiences — from problem framing through polished, shipped product — and be accountable for their quality and outcomes.
• Make complicated flows feel simple: distill dense, high-frequency merchant workflows into clear, fast, confidence-inspiring experiences.
• Design with real-world constraints as creative fuel — partnering closely with engineering to find solutions that are both excellent and feasible in mature, at-scale systems.
• Ground decisions in evidence: drive your own research and testing with real merchants, so improvements are built on how people actually work, not assumptions.
• Think in systems: strengthen consistency across the wider point-of-sale portfolio, contributing patterns and improvements back to our shared design system.
• Multiply the team: mentor other designers, raise the bar through critique, and bring a point of view that makes the work around you better.
• Put AI to work in your craft — using modern tools to explore, prototype, and validate faster, and modelling new ways of working for the team.

• 8+ years of product design experience at product-driven tech companies, with measurable impact on shipped products.
• A portfolio that shows strong fundamentals, polished UI craft, and complex workflows made simple.
• Experience designing for mature, at-scale products — and the judgment to know when to simplify, when to modernize, and when to leave well enough alone.
• A track record of partnering with engineering to navigate technical constraints and still ship excellent work.
• Fluency with prototyping and research methods to validate decisions and shape product direction.
• Active use of AI tools in your design workflow, and curiosity about how they're changing the craft.
• Strong communication skills — able to build alignment with cross-functional, global partners.
• Fluency in English as a working language is required for this position.

• Flexible paid time off and remote work policies.
• Equity options.
• Contributions to your pension plan.
• Training opportunities to grow your skills and career.
• Health and wellness credit.
• Time off to volunteer and give back to your community.
• Interest groups, employee‑led networks, social committees to sponsor sports teams.
• Computer purchase program to get your personal Mac Book.
• Enhanced parental leave.
