Staff Product Designer

Our Product Design team is small but mighty, and we’re highly collaborative and supportive of each other. We maintain team rituals that help us work with each other effectively, such as weekly critique, bi-weekly warmup, and retrospective. We recognize that team culture is a constant work-in-progress, not a one-and-done.

As a Staff Product Designer at Marqeta, you will play a critical role in designing solutions that help business customers build and launch card programs. You will work on our new 0 -> 1 consumer-facing product and shape the future of embedded finance. We’re interested in hiring someone who’s highly focused on craft and execution and is looking to grow in that direction vs moving to management.

We work Flexible First. This role can be performed remotely anywhere within the United States or from our Oakland, CA office. We’d love for you to join us!
