- Partner with Product and Engineering leaders to define priorities and make tradeoffs across blockchain protocols, platform surfaces, and downstream products
- Identify repeatable models and abstractions that can scale across blockchain use cases and products
- Set direction for complex problem spaces, mentor other designers, and raise the bar for blockchain product design across the organization
Requirements:
- 7+ years of product design experience, with meaningful exposure to crypto, blockchain, or financial infrastructure products
- Strong ability to design across interconnected workflows that involve technical and economic tradeoffs
- Excellent interaction and visual design skills, applied in service of clarity, trust, and correctness
- Experience setting design direction, influencing cross-functional partners, and mentoring designers
- Ability to explain complex ideas, articulate design decisions, and collaborate effectively in a distributed environment
