About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Lead the product design function collaborating closely with Leadership, Engineering, Product and Marketing teams
Design the full user journey for Symbiotic's product stack making onchain complexity legible and optimising for clean user flows.
Surface risk, exposure, and returns so users understand what they're committing to and what happens when conditions change.
Run user research. You'll interview users, watch how they actually behave, and turn what you find into concrete feature scopes engineering can build from.
Partner closely with Engineering to define problems, weigh tradeoffs, and design within real protocol constraints rather than around them.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Deep on-chain fluency: wallets, approvals, signing, gas, transaction lifecycle, chain latency — and a working understanding of how each one constrains what's designable.
You've shipped a DeFi product to real users, and you can point to it
A portfolio showing end-to-end product work — systems-level thinking alongside obsessive detail.
Track record of operating autonomously in fast-moving, ambiguous environments with limited oversight.
Comfortable without scaffolding: no design team, no design system to inherit, no one queuing your work.
You run your own research rather than waiting for it to be handed to you.
Excellent cross-functional communication — you can partner closely with Engineering and hold a position under scrutiny.
Deep fluency in Figma and modern prototyping workflows.
