📋 Description

• Own problems end-to-end: Take full ownership of product features from understanding the problem, to designing the experience, to writing the front-end code and shipping it to users. • Prototype in code: Replace static mockups with functional prototypes to validate ideas quickly and de-risk decisions with real customer feedback. • Drive design-led development: Work in a fixed-time, variable-scope environment. Focus on outcomes over outputs, partnering closely with backend and core engineering to deliver meaningful impact. • Ship fast without sacrificing quality: Balance speed and craft. Deliver polished, production-ready experiences on tight timelines, with strong attention to detail in both design and code. • Elevate the UI architecture: Evolve our design system and component libraries so design and code stay perfectly in sync across mobile and web platforms. • Act as a force multiplier: Raise the bar for the entire design team by helping designers ship in code and integrate AI tools into their workflows—improving speed, autonomy, and technical depth across the organization.

🎯 Requirements

• Proven hybrid experience: You’ve shipped real products where you owned both the design and code implementation (e.g. React, Typescript, Node, Vue.js etc.). • A builder's portfolio: You can point to live products—not just mockups—where you designed and built the experience. You likely use AI tools to prototype, iterate, and accelerate your workflow. • Strong product taste: You have a sharp eye for quality and know what makes an experience feel intuitive, fast, and delightful. • Deep technical understanding: You understand the constraints and possibilities of modern front-end development, and design accordingly—building solutions that are performant, scalable, and maintainable. • A builder mindset: You don’t wait for specs. You define problems, make decisions, and drive work to completion with minimal oversight. • Excellent communication skills: You can articulate design decisions and technical trade-offs clearly across design and engineering. • Passion for Bitcoin, financial empowerment, and the future of money.
