Reporting to Executive Creative Director Nick Ace, you will lead concepting, design, and execution hands-on across brand, product, AI video, and GTM work, setting the standard for craft and quality through the work itself.

This is not a people-management role. You will mentor and support designers through design reviews, feedback, and guidance on 1-2 team members, but most of your time goes to doing the work.

• Own top-priority MoonPay and Partner projects end to end, from concept through delivery.

• Lead creative for key launches and GTM campaigns, contributing original ideas and hands-on design.

• Work across brand, product, motion, and AI video to deliver cohesive, multi-disciplinary work.

• Partner with the Executive Creative Director to uphold Otherlife’s design standards and visual identity.

• Mentor designers through design reviews, feedback, and guidance.

• Collaborate with project managers, strategists, and developers for efficient delivery.

• Present creative work to stakeholders, clients, and partners.

• Stay current on design trends, tools, and AI workflows, and bring them into the team’s process.

Required Skills & Experience

• 7+ years of professional design experience, ideally in a creative or digital agency, with a strong portfolio of high-profile work.

• Experience working within web3, blockchain, fintech, AI or emerging tech companies. 

• Proven ability to lead complex, multi-disciplinary projects as a hands-on contributor.

• Experience creating broadcast-quality advertisements using AI-driven design tools and traditional methods. 

• Strong command of branding, digital design, UX/UI, motion, and visual storytelling.

• Experience with design systems and scalable visual frameworks.

• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to explain creative rationale to stakeholders and clients.

• Strong organization and attention to detail under tight deadlines.

• Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, plus familiarity with WebGL, GSAP, or Three.js.

• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent experience) in Graphic Design, Digital Media, or a related field.

Nice to Have

• Experience developing AI-driven automation for creative automation. 

• 3D and motion tools (After Effects, Cinema 4D, Blender).

• Informal mentorship or team-lead experience.

• Familiarity with agile, cross-functional workflows across design, engineering, and strategy.

Otherlife Perks

• Competitive salary based on experience, market data, and location.

• Share options.

• Health & dental benefits.

• Access to exclusive industry events.
