Founding Product Designer

New York City · Full-time · 1–3 years of experience

We're hiring a founding product/UI/UX and graphic designer.

The fastest-growing companies in the world are pump.fun, axiom, and hyperliquid — all of which hit $100M ARR faster than Lovable, Cursor, OpenAI, or Anthropic. We believe this points to a megatrend: the world is becoming more tokenized, more liquid, and more tradable - everything from equities, to memes, to prediction markets.

We're building the fastest, lowest-latency, gamified* trading platform on crypto rails. We've raised a pre-seed from top VCs and angels in crypto.

What we offer

  • Salary [base of $75k–$135k] + equity
  • Your design work will shape the entire product experience, brand, and culture from day one
  • Work with the CEO/CTO closely

Preferred qualifications

  • You believe in the hypergambling thesis: long degeneracy
  • Deep empathy for gamers & traders - you've lived inside games like Minecraft, LoL, Runescape, CSGO, Fortnite, etc.
  • Experience designing for real-time, high-frequency interaction products (games, trading platforms, live streaming, multiplayer tools)
  • Comfortable owning both product UI/UX and brand/visual identity
  • Knowledge of data visualization, motion/interaction design, and how to make complex systems feel simple and fun

About the interview

  • Portfolio review (show us your work & process)
  • Design exercise (can be product UI or brand-focused)
  • Call with CEO/CTO
  • Paid work trial (come in and design with us in our NYC office)

Tools we use

Figma, Adobe Suite, After Effects, Blender (optional)
