Crypto Jobs

Department: Product  Reports To: UX Design Manager  Employment Type: Full-Time  Salary: $132,000 – $160,000    About the Role tastytrade is a self-directed brokerage built for active options and futures traders, with a platform spanning web, desktop, and mobile. In order to meet the demands of our product's growth, we're hiring a Senior Product Designer to drive foundational elements: build the token architecture, component system, and craft standards the whole organization moves on. This is foundational work with platform-wide impact in a regulated financial environment where design decisions carry operational weight alongside UX tradeoffs.  We're looking for someone who leads with craft and thinks in systems. You'll work across our core platform, raise the craft bar across the team, and help build the design foundation that lets us scale quickly without accumulating debt.    What You'll Do:

Own design execution across the core platform (web, desktop, and mobile) from early discovery through production handoff 

Set and hold a high craft standard across the team: precise visual execution, complete interaction states, clear information hierarchy, and appropriate motion. When you review work, you give specific feedback with a clear rationale, not general impressions 

Build and maintain design system foundations: shared token layer, component architecture, usage guidelines, and the conventions that keep the platform feeling coherent as it scales 

Partner with engineering on implementation quality: you care how the product shows up to real customers, not just whether the Figma file was polished before handoff 

Establish shared navigational conventions and design standards that vertical product teams build within 

Produce documentation thorough enough that other designers can build on your decisions without needing you in the room 

Work directly with PMs and engineers to define scope and make calls under ambiguity 

Mentor other designers on craft, systems thinking, and technical execution: invest in how they think through problems and grow their capabilities 

  Who You Are:

8+ years of product design experience, with at least 2 years working in a regulated financial environment: fintech, trading, banking, crypto, investing, etc. 

A track record of moving metrics: you can point to specific design decisions you owned that shifted a meaningful outcome and explain the reasoning behind them 

Experience building or significantly contributing to a design system in a product org: tokens, component architecture, the decisions that let a team scale without accumulating debt 

High bar for visual craft in complex, data-dense interfaces: you bring the same rigor to a 40-column data table that others bring to a hero screen, and your portfolio demonstrates that visual quality and usability reinforce each other 

Systems thinking applied to design: you understand why a component decision matters at scale and can build foundations other designers extend without breaking 

Strong feedback and mentoring instincts: you can articulate what's wrong and why, and make the work better without taking over 

  Preferred Qualifications 

Background in options, futures, or equities trading products specifically 

Experience with token-based workflows and design-to-code handoff at a component level 

Crypto or emerging asset class product experience
