While this unlocks more open and programmable financial systems, it also introduces significant complexity. For most users, interacting with this new infrastructure is still too difficult.
Fun builds the infrastructure that powers consumer-facing fintech applications - handling onboarding, account access, and money movement so users can interact with blockchain-based systems as seamlessly as they do with traditional finance.
For fintech builders, Fun provides a best-in-class onboarding and deposit stack that drives conversion and unlocks user growth. We operate at the intersection of financial infrastructure, complex engineering, and product experience.
About the Role
We're looking for a Staff Product Designer who will own product design end-to-end for Fun.
Consumer finance applications have become global-first. This shift to global applications has created fascinating product and design challenges. Global users interact with money across hundreds of different assets, payment methods, countries, currencies, and account types. Our job is to make deposit and withdrawal flows that adapt, convert, and feel native. Tucking all of this complexity behind the scenes so that we can deliver every user a personalized, delightful experience.
We are looking for a self-starter. You'll walk in on day one, identify what needs to change, and start making things better immediately. Our company culture has a very strong point of view on craft and quality. It’s not enough for something to just work; it has to be beautiful too.
Requirements
6+ years of product or interaction design experience, with some of that at staff or lead level
Experience designing consumer-facing financial or crypto products
Mastery of Figma and component-based design systems
A portfolio that demonstrates both craft and thinking - you design and think about complete experiences, not just screens and pixels
Strong grasp of motion design and how animation enhances (not decorates) usability
Comfortable collaborating directly with frontend engineers - you know enough about React and CSS to have a real conversation
Exceptional attention to detail, with a particular focus on visual detail - typography, spacing, hierarchy, color and the why behind every interaction
Highly autonomous - you can define the problem, set your own direction, and execute without being managed
Clear communicator who can bring engineers, PMs, and stakeholders along on design decisions
Nice to Have
Familiarity with React, TypeScript, or SCSS - enough to QA your own work in code
Experience building or scaling design systems in fast-growing product teams
Motion design implementation via prototyping tools or direct engineer collaboration
Custom Figma tooling or plugin development
Experience designing products at scale (100K+ users)
What Sets You Apart
You get things done - you balance creative exploration with pragmatic decisions and have a track record of getting things out the door at a high bar
You've been the senior design voice in a room before and know how to hold that position with conviction
You thrive in ambiguous, fast-paced environments and are quick to learn new paradigms
You don't just make things look good - you make them work better
You set a high bar for yourself and the people around you, and you do it without being precious about it
