About Us
OG is a Crypto.com company building a new prediction market experience — where it pays to be right. We combine the accessibility of a consumer app, the engagement of a social layer, and the rigor of an institutional-grade platform so fans and consumers can trade on real-world outcomes: sports, finance, politics, culture, and entertainment. Headquartered in the U.S. and focused on the U.S. market first (with global expansion ahead), OG is backed by Crypto.com’s security and compliance infrastructure. Crypto.com’s vision remains simple: Cryptocurrency in Every Wallet™ — and OG is how we bring that product craft into prediction markets.
Responsibilities
- Own design strategy end-to-end. Set the design principles and standards for each product alongside product and market requirements. Make the craft call. Nothing ships without meeting your bar.
- Ship journeys, not screens. Define customer journeys and solve complex UX problems with urgency — from discovery through prototype to production — in lockstep with product and engineering.
- Drive product strategy through design. Present design direction, decisions, and rationale to senior stakeholders. Shape the roadmap, not just decorate it.
- Raise the team. Coach designers on journeys, flows, wireframes, mockups, and prototypes. Set the quality bar and develop the people who will hit it without you in the room.
- Own the design system. Oversee and contribute to the shared system so quality scales across teams instead of fragmenting into one-off UI.
- Turn data and research into decisions. Dig into user behavior, run interviews, focus groups, and usability tests, and turn insights into roadmap-changing recommendations — not slide decks that die in a folder.
Requirements
- Proven B2C product design leadership. Owned design for digital consumer products at meaningful scale and can walk through a launch where you set the craft bar, navigated stakeholder conflict, and shipped.
- Portfolio that proves end-to-end ownership. Can show journeys you owned — not just polished screens — including the problem, the tradeoffs, and what moved after ship. A portfolio is required to be considered.
- User-centered craft with business teeth. Apply UX principles in service of outcomes. Can describe a time you chose the harder UX path because the data (or the user behavior) demanded it — and what the number did.
- Multi-project shipping at scale. Have run several workstreams in parallel and can point to how you sequenced, cut scope, and still shipped quality.
- Team builder, not just IC star. Have developed and coached a mid-to-large design team and can describe how someone grew under you — and what you did when quality slipped.
- Executive presence. Translate creative vision into business language. Have aligned senior stakeholders on a design direction when opinions conflicted, and can recount the decision and the aftermath.
Preferred Qualifications
- An AI player and Pilot Fintech / crypto / trading UX: Designed money-moving or high-stakes financial flows; already know trust and clarity are the product.
- Design systems at scale: Evolved a system used by multiple product squads and can show adoption, not just a Figma library.
- Research ops fluency: Built a lightweight research cadence that product and engineering actually use.
Why This Role
- Access. Work directly with the CPO and senior product leadership. Your design calls land where strategy is set. No layers.
- Leverage. Design system + team leadership means your taste multiplies across products — not one feature at a time.
- Frontier. Consumer crypto UX is still being written. Trust, speed, and clarity at global scale is hard. That's the job.
- Upside. Early ownership of experiences that sit on the critical path of how customers discover, use, and stay with the product.
- Team. High-caliber product and engineering partners who care whether the thing actually works for the user — not just whether it shipped.
