Job description

The company is the world’s first licensed hybrid decentralized exchange (DEX), on a mission to make wealth-building as natural as daily life. It is building a compliant, self-custodial platform for premium tokenized strategies—from crypto to alternative investments—on trusted infrastructure. As a Design System Designer, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the visual and functional foundations of a next-generation financial platform. You will be responsible for building, evolving, and maintaining a scalable design language that bridges the gap between complex trading products and high-impact marketing initiatives. This role is ideal for a systems thinker who thrives on creating consistency, scalability, and high-quality craft across both desktop and mobile environments.

Key Responsibilities

System Evolution & Maintenance: Design and maintain comprehensive, scalable Figma libraries for both product teams (trading platforms, wallets, onboarding) and marketing teams (social templates, landing pages, campaign kits).

Standardization: Document and govern cross-functional visual standards—including typography, color theory, spacing, iconography, and motion—to ensure a balance between brand expression and accessibility.

Component Development: Build and document a library of reusable UI components (modals, charts, tables, inputs, etc.) with clearly defined interaction states and technical specifications.

Engineering Collaboration: Partner closely with developers to ensure design-to-code parity, participating in handoff processes, QA, and the implementation of React-based component libraries.

Marketing Support: Develop modular systems for social media, email campaigns, webinars, and pitch decks to ensure brand consistency across all touchpoints.

Interaction Design: Create sophisticated motion patterns and micro-interactions that enhance usability and bring the platform’s brand to life.

Audit & Governance: Perform regular audits of existing experiences to identify and rectify inconsistencies in design usage and accessibility.

Strategic Contribution: Participate in design critiques and contribute to the system roadmap based on emerging product features and industry best practices.

Qualifications & Requirements

Experience: 5+ years of experience in Product, UX, or Interaction Design, with at least 3 years dedicated specifically to building and maintaining design systems.

Technical Mastery: Deep proficiency in Figma, including advanced features like tokens, variables, auto layout, and variants.

Systems Thinking: A proven ability to think modularly and create scalable solutions for complex, data-heavy interfaces.

Communication: Exceptional skills in articulating design decisions and collaborating across engineering, product, and marketing departments.

Industry Knowledge: Familiarity with Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines (HIG), Google’s Material Design, and accessibility standards (WCAG).

Portfolio: A strong portfolio demonstrating your ability to bridge the gap between branding and functional product design.
