📋 Description

• Define and drive the design vision for Circle’s wallet products — across mobile, web, and embedded APIs/SDKs. • Lead user experience design around crypto-centric flows: private key abstraction, address formats, signing, gas fees, and chain compatibility. • Build interfaces that promote clarity and trust in high-stakes environments — security prompts, recovery flows, biometrics, and secure enclaves. • Collaborate with product managers and engineers to align technical feasibility with intuitive UX. • Maintain and extend our product design system for crypto-specific use cases and components. • Conduct user research and usability testing, especially with crypto-native and crypto-curious audiences. • Mentor more junior designers on the team and scale product design practices within a fast-paced startup culture. • Serve as a voice of design within the broader organization, advocating for user needs and responsible Web3 innovation.

🎯 Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in product design, with 2+ years in crypto, blockchain, fintech, or related industries. • Experience designing complex user experiences — ideally involving wallets, financial products, developer tools, or security-related applications. • Deep knowledge of crypto design principles, including non-custodial vs. custodial wallets, transaction signing, seed phrase management, and L2 ecosystems. • Strong interaction and visual design skills, with a portfolio that reflects thoughtful problem-solving in ambiguous or emerging technology spaces. • Proficiency in Figma and other modern design and prototyping tools. • A proactive communication style — you’re comfortable navigating async collaboration and working with distributed teams across languages and timezones. • Experience leading design initiatives end-to-end — from early discovery to implementation and launch.
