Cycles Protocol is an open clearing protocol that enables private, secure, and accessible clearing of debts using any type of currency or credit. Incubated by Informal Systems, the project provides a protocol-layer solution aimed at giving individuals and organizations access to clearing and issuance mechanisms that historically have been restricted to closed banking clubs. Cycles publishes a whitepaper and positions itself as a decentralized, protocol-first approach to settlement and credit clearing.

📋 Description

• Lead product and design across institutional products, from discovery and user research through to shipped interfaces on web and (where relevant) mobile. • Turn dense clearing, settlement, and treasury workflows into flows users can run with confidence. • Define and own the product's design language, UX patterns, and interaction principles so institutional buyers trust what they see. • Partner tight with engineering to prototype, test, and ship fast without dropping the quality bar. • Run user research and usability testing yourself. Bring what you learn back into the product. • Drive product strategy and roadmap. Find the next surfaces, prioritize the work, and decide what we ship.

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years shipping institutional-grade products end-to-end, in fintech, payments, trading, clearing, or crypto market infrastructure. • Track record of shipping products from 0→1 and iterating based on real customer feedback. • You understand institutional users want control and transparency, not hand-holding. You can make sophisticated financial tools feel obvious without flattening the complexity. • Strong product judgment plus real UX and information architecture chops for complex financial products. • Fluent in Figma and the modern design toolkit. Solid grip on responsive design for web and mobile. • You work well with engineers in fast-moving remote environments. • Portfolio that shows systems thinking and clear UX reasoning, not just polished screens. • Based in New York. The role is remote on paper but our clients and core team work happens in person. You should be in the city most weeks.

🏖️ Benefits

• 20 days (4 weeks) of paid vacation annually, plus 3 Spiritual Days • Company closure from December 25th to January 1 • Annual Lifestyle benefits (reimbursements for gym memberships, fitness equipment, etc) • A remote first, flexible work environment • A home office stipend to set you up for success • Annual company retreats • Paid parental leave
