About the job

As a UX writer, you are an advocate for Google design, shaping product experiences by creating useful, meaningful text that helps users complete tasks. You help set the vision for content and drive cohesive product narratives across multiple platforms and touch points. As a stellar writer, your portfolio of work demonstrates content that simplifies and beautifies the overall user experience. You work with people in a variety of UX design-related jobs including researchers, product managers, engineers, marketing and customer operations. Collaborating with each, you strive to establish cohesive language and a unified voice across products and platforms. You regularly use empathy, logic and data to inform content choices and recommendations that include the right words and sometimes complementary data and images.

Consumer Payments UX designs a cross-surface payment experience for Google users. The team works on Google Wallet across surfaces (e.g., Web, Android, Chrome, MyAccount) as well as checkout experiences in Chrome across global markets. In this role, you will work as part of the team to create simple and safe payment features like card tokenization, account linking, and e-Wallets. You will also design for non-payments journeys in Wallet, like adding transit cards, using a mobile drivers license at an airport, and setting up digital car keys.

Whether it is paying online with Autofill, using tap and pay in stores, or using the Google Pay app, the Payments team at Google is focused on making payments simple, seamless, and secure. In addition to consumer payment technologies, the Payments team also powers the money movement between Google and its consumers and businesses.
