Senior Product Designer
Senior Product Designer
Location: NYC, in-person only (non-negotiable)
Experience: Minimum 3 years leading product design
Compensation: $100k–$120k base + aggressive token and equity grants
Role
You will own design across product and brand for the Genius ecosystem. Tradegenius is building a next-generation crypto terminal and exchange, with the deepest network coverage of any terminal, and the most liquid backers in the industry (ask for details). Design is not decorative here: it is the conversion engine, the retention loop, and the brand differentiator.
Your mandate is to architect the Genius brand and product experience around two guiding principles:
- Delight — frictionless, elegant user journeys that surprise and satisfy.
- Dopamine — behavioral design that rewards engagement, drives repetition, and sustains community stickiness.
Archetypical Users
- Discretionary traders, large whales, sophisticated actors, and those with high risk tolerance.
- Audience is crypto-native, but tolerance for poor UX should not be mistaken for acceptance. The design goal is to set a new standard: crypto-native speed and power with consumer-grade usability and polish.
Responsibilities
- Establish and enforce the Genius design system across all surfaces (terminal, onboarding flows, rewards, referrals, mobile).
- Translate abstract trading infra into human-intuitive interactions; make complex financial actions legible and addictive.
- Partner with product and engineering to ship UI/UX that converts, retains, and scales globally.
- Lead visual identity, brand language, and marketing design with coherence across web, social, and community touchpoints.
- Implement feedback loops: design experiments, measure dopamine hits, double down on what works.
Requirements
- Track record of building and shipping consumer-grade products, ideally in fintech, crypto, or high-stakes systems.
- Proficiency in design systems, motion, and interaction—beyond static screens.
- Behavioral psychology literacy: able to design for dopamine without losing trust.
- Obsession with detail: typography, micro-interactions, and delight moments.
- Strong cross-functional communication; can defend design decisions to engineers and investors alike.
- Bias to action, ownership, comfort with ambiguity.
- Speed, speed, speed, speed
Why Genius
- Impact: We’re building the final crypto interface for DeFi. Our goal is to eat crypto. You get to determine what that looks and feels like.
- Upside: Aggressive token and equity grants aligned with growth.
