From the code to the values, we are Ethereum-aligned. We believe Ethereum has the potential to solve some of humanity’s most crucial coordination issues. Since our initial inception as a non-profit research group, we have have sought to scale both its technology and values.

At present the most pressing bottleneck to the growth of Ethereum is its performance and scalability. We are building the most elegant solution to this problem. We do this out in the open because we believe in open source and its ability to accelerate innovation.

Not only do we improve Ethereum's performance by orders of magnitude, we donate 100% of the profits generated from doing so to Ethereum public goods. We do this because we believe the future of the open internet is too important to be left to chance. By operating as a Public Benefit Corporation we're able to align private incentives with public good and create a positive-sum economic model that provides a sustainable future for the internet.

This is an opportunity to make your mark! The Senior Product Designer will be directly responsible for the user experience and its impact on iterations of the Optimism ecosystem.

What are the role responsibilities?

  • Design and ship high-quality improvements to our products
  • Participate in user research to understand the problem space and inform solutions
  • Partner with product and engineering to define strategy and execute on the roadmap
  • Build wireframes, sketches, prototypes, concepts, and/or code to explore solutions for everything from broad problems to tactical deliverables
  • Engage in regular design reviews to seek out feedback, improve the product, and hone your craft

What skills do you bring?

  • Excellent at simplifying complex problems into elegant solutions
  • Experience as a Product Designer shipping consumer-facing experiences users love
  • Experience in a collaborative environment working with engineering and product teams
  • Familiarity with the crypto space. You may not have worked in crypto before, but you should be comfortable with tools, terms, and concepts
  • Curiosity and growth mindset. You love learning new things, whether they’re nuanced perspectives from our users, new financial primitives, or new skills
  • Interest in the technical and social vision of blockchain technology

What you'll like about us:

  • We take care of our employees—from fully paid medical, dental and vision to a 4% 401K match, we've got you covered—learn more about our benefits, culture and all recruiting FAQ here.
