• Contribute to UI/UX design, ensuring our platform is not just functional but also visually appealing and delightful to use.
• Conduct user research to gather insights and understand user needs, pain points, and preferences. Ship fast and often. Your ideas will quickly make it into live products.

You

• Solid understanding of semantic HTML, CSS, and core JavaScript concepts.
• Experience with React and TypeScript.
• Demonstrated ability in UI/UX design with a solid eye for aesthetics and attention to detail.
• Ability to think from the user’s perspective and advocate for the best possible experience.
• Experience creating design mockups and prototypes using tools like Figma or similar.
• Passion for and knowledge of blockchain technologies.
• Proactive with product ideas and opinions.
• Curiosity and a keen interest in “why?”
• Outstanding written communication skills.
• Self-motivated and self-managing; able to thrive in an asynchronous environment.

Nice to have

• Experience with Next.js.
• Experience interacting with smart contracts via the frontend.
• Experience with unit testing, end-to-end testing, or visual testing.
• An appreciation for memes.

Perks

• Salary paid in a SideShift.ai-supported crypto of your choice.
• Join a company with traction (seven-figure daily volume) and key industry partnerships.
• Direct impact on the product. Your ideas will lead to real developments.
• Remote-first culture—work wherever you feel most productive.
• Flexible vacation policy.
