Head of Design

We’re seeking an exceptional Head of Design to lead our growing design team and shape the visual identity of one of the world’s leading cryptocurrency platforms. This is a unique opportunity to define and elevate our brand across every touchpoint—from our website and mobile app to social media, real-life events, and beyond.

As Head of Design, you’ll be both a visionary leader and a hands-on creative force. You’ll build and maintain cohesive design systems that push the boundaries of what’s possible for a crypto company, while nurturing a talented team of designers to do their best work.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Lead and grow our design team, fostering a culture of creativity, collaboration, and continuous learning
• Own our brand identity across all channels, ensuring consistency and excellence at every touchpoint
• Build and maintain comprehensive design systems that scale across web, mobile, and physical experiences
• Drive creative innovation, staying ahead of design trends and movements while bringing fresh thinking to the crypto space
• Balance strategic leadership with hands-on contribution, getting into the details when needed while empowering your team to excel
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, marketing, and engineering teams to deliver world-class user experiences
• Elevate our presence at events, campaigns, and key brand moments with standout creative work

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

• 8+ years of design experience across a variety of projects and mediums
• Proven leadership experience managing, mentoring, and growing design teams
• Exceptional eye for detail with a deep understanding of design trends, movements, and best practices
• Strong systems thinking, with experience building and maintaining scalable design systems
• Hands-on expertise as an individual contributor who still loves to create
• A standout portfolio that demonstrates your range, craft, and creative thinking
• Proficiency in industry-standard tools including Figma, Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop), Framer, and ideally Rive
• Specialization in a particular design discipline (e.g., 3D work, motion design, illustration) is a strong plus
• Someone who geeks out over the latest design tools, techniques, and creative possibilities
• Crypto or fintech experience is a bonus, but not essential—we value design talent above all

WHAT MAKES YOU STAND OUT

• You’re equally comfortable leading strategy and diving into the craft
• You have a passion for pushing creative boundaries and aren’t afraid to challenge conventions
• You’re a natural mentor who elevates the work of everyone around you
• You thrive in fast-paced environments and can balance multiple priorities
• You bring energy, curiosity, and a genuine love for great design

If you’re a creative leader ready to make your mark on the future of crypto, we’d love to see your portfolio and hear from you.
