About The Position

We are seeking an experienced and hands-on Senior Product Designer to help shape the core user experience for our sportsbook platform. This is a role for a high-craft practitioner who excels at executing complex, high-velocity consumer flows and collaborating closely with cross-functional peers. You will contribute directly to our most impactful sportsbook initiatives, elevate our design quality, and help mentor team members by setting a high bar for product craft.

As a key part of this role, you will be the lead designer for our new sports betting platform. This is a rare opportunity to re-envision how the traditional sports industry operates by building crypto-specific products to support these use cases.

Think of this as a unique opportunity to completely rebuild the consumer stack using crypto. Many of these will be brand new experiences that will require a designer to push the boundaries of what is possible. Great candidates will be genuinely excited about sports, and a passion for sports betting is a significant plus.

You'll bring a basic understanding of crypto and a proven track record of creating best-in-class consumer experiences. This is a unique opportunity to build and shape a design function while staying deeply connected to the craft.

Applicants must submit a design portfolio showcasing exceptional hands-on design work and their ability to lead projects.

Requirements

• 6+ years of experience in product design, with a proven track record of operating at a senior level (e.g., Senior, Lead, or Principal) with experience mentoring other designers.
• A basic understanding of crypto is required. You should have a foundational grasp of the space (e.g., how wallets or transactions work) and a curiosity to learn how to design for decentralized platforms.
• A compelling portfolio showcasing both exceptional, recent hands-on design work and your ability to lead complex projects. Your portfolio should reflect a high degree of visual craft and strategic thinking.
• A "builder" mindset, with a track record of operating with autonomy and thriving in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment.
• Proven ability to lead projects that simplify highly complex concepts into delightfully simple and intuitive user experiences.
• Expert proficiency in Figma and other modern design and prototyping tools.
• AI-First Tooling: Demonstrated experience or high comfort working with AI coding tools and LLM workflows to prototype interactive interfaces rapidly.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to articulate design decisions and build consensus from the team level to the executive level.

Nice To Haves

• A deep enthusiasm for sports. A genuine passion for sports betting or the mechanics of sports markets is highly desirable.

Responsibilities

• Act as the primary hands-on designer for our sports betting platform, helping translate unique protocol work and novel concepts into intuitive and engaging user experiences.
• Define and drive the overall product design vision and strategy for our sports suite, ensuring it aligns with business objectives and user needs.
• Lead the design of major features and contribute directly with hands-on work including user flows, wireframes, and high-fidelity prototypes.
• Collaborate closely with Product and Engineering leadership to align on roadmaps, prioritize efforts, and ensure a high-quality, cohesive user experience.
• Elevate the team through mentorship, fostering a culture of excellence through direct feedback, design critiques, and sharing best practices in craft.
• Establish and refine design processes (e.g., reviews, user research) that fit our fast-paced environment and empower the team to do their best work.
• AI-Native Execution: We don't do slow, static Figma sign-offs. We operate completely AI-native, leveraging tools like Cursor and Claude Code to build, test, and ship high-fidelity functional prototypes at extreme velocity
