Senior Designer

About the role

Every screen a consumer taps through, and every surface a merchant sees Klarna's name on,

is a decision someone made — the layout, the wording, the visual identity holding it together.

That someone is a designer, and at this level, the work spans both: shaping product flows

people use every day, and shaping how Klarna looks and feels wherever it shows up.

This is a general Senior Designer opening, not tied to one fixed team. Depending on need at the

time of hiring, you could be placed on a product team working on a specific consumer or

merchant flow, or on a brand-facing team shaping visual identity and campaigns — and your

focus may shift as the business changes. Either way, you'll be expected to move between the

two: designing a screen one week, and making sure a brand guideline holds up across a dozen

touchpoints the next.

What you'll do

● You'll design end-to-end product flows, from early concept through polished, shippable

interfaces.

● You'll shape and apply Klarna's visual identity across the surfaces you own, keeping

brand and product design consistent with each other.

● You'll prototype ideas quickly to test direction before committing engineering time to

them.

● You'll work directly with product managers, engineers, and other designers to turn a

rough problem into a specific, buildable solution.

● You'll use AI tools as part of your everyday design process, not as a separate

experiment.

● You'll give and act on design critique, and hold your own work to the same bar you'd

apply to someone else's.

Who you are

● You've worked as a designer across both product and brand work, not just one of the

two.

● You can take a flow from a rough idea to a finished, usable interface on your own.

● You understand how typography, layout, and visual identity carry through consistently

across different formats and touchpoints.

● You use AI tools yourself as part of how you design, not just to talk about using them.

● You can explain a design decision — including the ones you rejected — to both

designers and non-designers.

● You're comfortable moving between different kinds of design work as priorities shift.

Bonus points for

● A degree in design, visual communication, or a related field.

● Experience designing for a regulated industry such as fintech or banking.

● Motion design or animation experience.

● Experience contributing to or maintaining a design system.
