What We're Looking For

  • Deep understanding of design principles: typography, layout, color, and visual hierarchy.
  • Experience working with Figma, design tokens, and design systems to close the gap between design intent and production reality.
  • An eye for detail that borders on obsessive. You notice things other people miss and you care about fixing them.

  • A genuine passion for markets, truth, and freedom of speech.
  • (Plus) Understanding of DeFi and financial markets, a willingness to develop that understanding is a must.
