About Carepay

CarePay is a fast-growing fintech / healthtech company with offices in Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania, and the Netherlands. Our corporate mission is to “Give Everyone the Power to Care” through a digital payment and data platform that transparently connects people, healthcare providers, and healthcare payers. Through our platform we already connect over 4.5 million people with more than 2000 healthcare providers and financing from various insurances, employers and donors. In 2017, CarePay won the FT/IFC Transformational Business Award and in 2018 CarePay was recognized as a Technology Pioneer 2018 by the World Economic Forum, putting it in the same league as previous winners of the same award such as Google, Facebook and Airbnb. In 2019 CarePay secured substantial financial funding to support and fuel our growth and to realize our vision.

As a UX Designer at CarePay you are part of the UX Chapter and work closely with product owners and development teams to create and improve what the platform has to offer its end users. You are part of multidisciplinary teams including UX’ers, software engineers, cloud engineers, business analysts and business owners. As a UX Designer you take ownership of the behaviour, interaction and look and feel of your focus area within the platform and take pride in achieving results.

Your main task is to create solutions that are aligned with business objectives, the technical implications and the needs of the end users. You have a high level of empathy and a passion for understanding the user. You are not reluctant to ask hard questions to understand the why of a situation and know the difference between what people say they want and what they actually need.

You will be working with a team of UX designers to help you progress in your craft, share knowledge and with whom you will actively contribute to the design library, guidelines and patterns across the platform. You seek alignment when needed, but can work independently to explore new opportunities and solutions.
