You'll work closely with Product and Engineering partners, driving the entire end-to-end design process from initial product definition through to hand-off and post-release iteration.

This position is fully remote, and we’d love to see applicants across the US and Canada, with a preference for hybrid NYC talent.

• Champion UX innovation across web3 through a deep understanding of design best practices, blockchain fundamentals and emerging trends
• Build prototypes and conduct user research to validate design decisions, empathize with users, and rapidly iterate
• Contribute to Magic's design system, ensuring teams can move fast without sacrificing quality or consistency
• Mentor and potentially grow the design team, fostering a culture of design excellence

You have:

• Strong passion for Web3 and blockchain knowledge, ideally Ethereum.
• 6+ years of product design experience, preferably within web3, developer tooling, and/or startup environments
• Ability to balance customer needs with business goals and technical constraints
• Strong product instincts
• Mastery of design fundamentals and proven understanding of UX and interaction design best practices

Why you'll love working with us:

• Remote-first culture with flexible working hours

• 99% company-paid medical*, dental and vision insurance; 100% company-paid life and disability insurance
• 401(k) plan* (US) or pension plan (CAN)
