Head of Design in dcSpark

Closed job - No longer receiving applicants

We're crypto ecosystem builders. We empower everyday individuals with peer-to-peer technology in addition to providing blockchain solutions to a wide variety of clients from standard corporations and foundations to DAOs and treasuries.

Our goal is to become one of the top blockchain development firms in the world, but not by creating the 10 millionth "novel" blockchain and starting from 0 as one may expect. Instead we are tackling real problems in existing ecosystems in top crypto projects, thereby addressing the real needs of users. As such we aren't reinventing the wheel but rather fortifying existing designs of the wheel and building out the rest of the car which makes the wheel actually useful.

Experience

Our founding team has combined over a decade of experience in blockchain development and producing products. The dcSpark team has proven deep knowledge in creating cryptographic libraries, ideation of protocols, etc.

Job functions

You will work directly with the upper management in the defining and mocking up new products and their vision. We will be developing critical products for various blockchain ecosystems, so there will be great opportunity available to you in scoping out the direction of various interesting projects.

In this work you will be supported by a team which already has vast experience creating numerous products which will smooth over any lack of crypto experience you may have. With over 30 native mobile Apps, DeFi protocols, a crypto wallet with over 400,000 users, and more, we have worked with numerous designers and provide sufficient freedom to come up with interesting designs within the context of getting things done in a timely manner.

We will work as a team in the ideation of what we want to create, and from there prototypes will be built in InVision / Figma. We expect to have a high number of users from the very start which means that any work you do will actually be appreciated by real people at the end of the day.

Qualifications and requirements

- Proven experience working with web and mobile products.
- Experience with Sketch / Illustrator or equivalent.
- Experience with InVision or Figma.
- Good eye for modern design.
- Experience giving feedback to developers about design implementation.
- Curiosity in order to learn about Blockchain and DeFi.

Desirable skills

- Some basic knowledge of Blockchain (not necessary).
- Some basic knowledge of some financial terms like APY, interest rate, inflation, etc.
- Have worked on a startup before.

Conditions

We are offering a unique opportunity to take over the design leadership role in what could be a very fast growing international company in an up and coming industry. We are currently closing a big seed round of investment to finance our growth, and would be happy to have you jump on board to imagine and design a new face for what crypto really can be.
