The Firm
Paradigm is a San Francisco-based investment firm focused on crypto and blockchain-related technologies across the globe. We make investments in companies and protocols at all stages including early-stage venture financing rounds, growth equity, and liquid token assets. Paradigm was co-founded in 2018 by Matt Huang (former Partner at Sequoia Capital) and Fred Ehrsam (co-founder of Coinbase). We are building a world-class team to support our portfolio and the crypto ecosystem globally.
Given the technical complexity of the blockchain projects we invest in, engineering and product design is incredibly important to Paradigm, and the team is tasked with the critical role of creating the operating system of the fund. From data collation to investment discovery to custom on chain contracts, this team is in charge of building the system that directs all investment activity -- on chain, in custody, traded, or privately held. The system is the source of truth -- building insights to the fund’s positions that inform how Paradigm invests and manages its portfolio. Projects at Paradigm are rapidly expanding as interest from the rest of the world descends on the ecosystem, and we find ourselves with more opportunity in front of us than bandwidth to help bring it to life. We’re looking for open-minded individuals to come help shape the future of crypto from the inside out.
The Role
Paradigm is looking for a Product Designer to help us design, prototype, and build end-to-end experiences for the products that help Paradigm operate as a premiere investment firm. This person will own the design of products used daily by the entire organization to move quickly in a competitive market.
In a decade, you’ll be able to look back and see how your work at Paradigm has helped create the financial system of the future, fundamentally transforming this burgeoning industry.
What does a product designer do?
A product designer is responsible for creating and designing the physical and visual aspects of a product, with the aim of enhancing its functionality, usability, and aesthetics
This involves a broad range of tasks, such as researching and analyzing customer needs, designing user interfaces, creating sketches and prototypes, testing and refining designs, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure the final product meets the intended user needs and business goals
A product designer must have a deep understanding of design principles, materials, manufacturing processes, and technological advancements in order to create products that are both innovative and functional
They must also have excellent communication skills, as they work closely with engineers, marketing teams, and other stakeholders to ensure that the product is developed on time, within budget, and meets the desired quality standards
Product designers work in a variety of industries, such as consumer electronics, furniture, automotive, fashion, and healthcare, to name a few
They may work for large corporations, small businesses, or as freelance designers, and often collaborate with other designers, engineers, and manufacturers to bring their designs to life
In web3, a product designer is responsible for designing and creating decentralized applications (dApps) and other products that leverage blockchain technology, smart contracts, and decentralized networks
This involves understanding the unique technical and functional requirements of web3 products, as well as the principles of decentralization, transparency, and user ownership
Web3 product designers need to be familiar with blockchain technology, smart contract programming languages, and decentralized networks, in order to design products that can operate effectively in a decentralized environment
They need to be able to work with developers and other stakeholders to ensure that the product is designed in a way that maximizes user control and ownership, while minimizing the potential for fraud or malicious activity
Web3 product designers may work on a range of products, such as decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, non-fungible token (NFT) marketplaces, decentralized social networks, and more
They may also work closely with blockchain developers, economists, and other specialists to create products that are both innovative and practical, while maintaining a strong focus on user experience.
