COMPANY AND ROLE

At 0x, our mission is to create a tokenized world where all value can flow freely. In joining us, you'll take part in transforming the way that value is exchanged on a global scale. We are a highly technical, globally distributed team with headquarters in San Francisco.

We're passionate about open-source software and decentralized technology's potential to act as an equalizing force in the world, and our protocol is being used by a wide array of projects at the cutting edge of internet and economic advancement.

0x will serve as the rails upon which the exchange of digital assets takes place. As a Digital Designer at 0x, you'll be involved in every step of the product development process, from brainstorming and contributing new ideas to ensuring design quality and consistency through launch. You'll work alongside product management and engineering using your broad range of interaction, visual, and product thinking skills.

This role entails working on a variety of products, and in collaboration with internal and external teams — from projects that drive growth and improve developer experience, increase ZRX community involvement via decentralized governance interfaces, to shaping how 0x is understood by lay and technical audiences. The scope is wide: You may spend part of your days designing for 0x.org and ZRX Portal, graphics to visualize and explain 0x concepts and data, materials for 0x events, as well as helping strategize around governance and community involvement.

WHO YOU ARE

You're an artist, strategist, and tactician with an intuitive understanding of the power of design — from its ability to inspire and educate, to its ability to drive user adoption. You have a strong product and branding instincts with an opinionated visual style. You know when, where, and how to adapt visual design to the spirit of accompanying text, materials, and philosophies.

You care deeply about collaboration and value empathy over ego. You believe in the power of every individual's creative freedom and are excited to embrace diverse viewpoints. You excel at taking a vision and turning it into something tangible, delightful, and easily digestible.
