Product Designer Jobs in Web3

Company Details

At Nume Crypto, we are disrupting the payments space. 1.3B people worldwide are neglected by traditional financial services and remain unbanked. Truly enabling the crypto payments usecase can unlock the biggest promise crypto is yet to realize: Being an equalizer. Anyone with an enabled phone has access to transact in the same global economy. Nume Crypto’s mission is to be the easiest, safest and cheapest payments gateway for cryptocurrency. We are building a near zero-cost payment gateway to process cryptocurrency payments.

Crypto payments as a usecase hasn’t found mass adoption yet. While we are in the very early stages of adoption, the disruptive potential of this usecase cannot be overstated. Imagine a world where you didn’t have to give over the reigns of your money to a bank or other intermediaries but held it yourself, where someone unbanked currently has access to the same global economy that you do due to being able to transact in crypto, where small businesses didn’t take a 3-5% cut on each of their transactions and have to wait for 14 days to get their money when cross-border.

If the thought of diving into a complex problem space, wading through noise to discern customer needs and defining world-class product experiences is exciting to you, please read on :)
