The Senior Design Technologist will join the San Francisco
Innovation Center team where we are transforming our product development and
design process into one that demonstrates human centered design practices with
a focus on actively engaging clients in product development and co-creation.
This design leader will be part of design thinking engagements that include
ideation, iteration and testing. The engagements will be both onsite and
offsite with Visa client teams. You will contribute to driving much of Visa’s
innovation road map through applied exploration and development, reporting to
the Vice President of the San Francisco Innovation Center.

You will lead the support of projects based on human
centered design methods and work across many aspects (e.g., design, technology,
products, etc) for Visa’s client merchants, acquirers, issuers, technology
partners and end consumers. Are you comfortable with ambiguity, developing
solutions that begin with the customer and rapid iterations of prototypes to
deliver customer experiences that are simple, powerful, and extraordinary? We
believe in curiosity, creative confidence, experimentation through making
continuous learning, respectful collaboration, inclusion, empathy, resiliency
and fun! Are you a “SWAN”? – someone who is smart, bold, works-hard and is
nice?
