Job Short Description

The Role

The BitGo Design Team is responsible for the user experience of using our software. We're committed to creating a tight-knit team environment that fosters trust, integrity, empathy, and growth. We work together in realizing a shared product vision, and regularly give feedback and critique to each other. Product design at BitGo is a varied experience. On a given day, you might be: leading a design sprint for your product team; designing a micro-interaction to make a complex analytical task feel simple; and/or advocating for UX consistency by creating flexible, reusable UI components.

Responsibilities

• Work closely with engineers and product managers to define both the long-term strategy and the short-term tactics for our products
• Work closely with fellow designers and engineers to develop and expand product's design system
• Sometimes work on very broadly defined, loose concepts, and sometimes on narrowly defined, tactical deliverables
• Focus on what you do best — whether that’s sketches, wireframes, prototypes, designs, or code—and you’ll have the opportunity to sharpen the skills you’re looking to develop
• Research new software or design concepts
• Review final layouts and suggest improvements, as needed
• Create designs, concepts, and sample layouts, based on knowledge of layout principles and esthetic design concepts
• Work in a highly collaborative fashion with the design, product, and engineering teams
• Participate in design reviews and share your work regularly with the design and company leadership

Skills & Experience

• Can reduce complex problems down to the right balance of flexibility, power, and ease of use
• Keep pushing your work until all details are attended to
• Are persuasive and humble in explaining your work, process, and decisions and crave feedback to help you design at your best
• Are an expert in either UI, UX, or visual design, but skilled in more disciplines across product design
• You care about details and are excited to keep pushing your work until is pixel-perfect
• Think in systems and are able to extrapolate and extend shared patterns and behaviors
• Love working with other designers to help them learn and grow—and have them help you learn and grow
• Are passionate about BitGo's mission, are dedicated to a user-first mindset, and have experience working with data and insights
• Have 5+ years relevant design experience at a tech, product-driven company
