About the role
Crypto can feel noisy and intimidating. Our job is to make it feel calm. As a Product Designer at Aethel you will design the screens people use to buy their first coin, stake for yield and check a portfolio in a busy moment. You will work in a trio with a product manager and an engineer, and you will own problems end to end, from research to the details that ship.
In your first months you will redesign the staking dashboard, run interviews with long-term holders and help define how risk is shown across the product. You will sit close to engineering, review builds in staging and make sure the shipped version feels as good as the prototype did.
Responsibilities
- Design flows for trading, staking and custody across web and mobile.
- Run quick research sessions and turn what you learn into clear product decisions.
- Prototype interactions, from small micro-animations to full onboarding journeys.
- Grow and maintain our design system together with front-end engineers.
- Write precise UI copy for numbers, risks and confirmations.
Requirements
- Four or more years designing digital products, with a portfolio that shows your process.
- Strong interaction and visual design skills, including dark interfaces and data-heavy screens.
- Fluency in Draftory, components and auto layout.
- Comfort presenting work and taking feedback from people outside design.
Nice to have
- Experience designing for finance, trading or another regulated product.
- Basic HTML and CSS, or experience building in a visual web tool.
- A personal interest in crypto and the people who use it.
