Metaplex Studios

Metaplex Studios is the official standard for Solana NFTs and the largest NFT ecosystem in the world. In less than one year since launch, we have experienced massive growth with over 18 million NFTs created using the Metaplex protocol, facilitating over $3 billion in commerce for developers and creatives of all kinds. Solana’s energy efficiency, low cost, and fast transaction speeds provide a unique opportunity now to build a future for NFTs as the infrastructure for an increasingly broad scope of use cases; it has already been used for over 85k projects in gaming, arts & collectibles, marketplaces, developer tools, and more.

On a mission to empower creators, Metaplex champions a world full of diverse perspectives, creativity and art. For this to be possible, creators must have increased access to their audience, powerful tools that are easy to use, and be able to retain more financial benefits from the sales and use of their work. We believe tokens and blockchain technology are a critical tool for this purpose. For more information, visit www.metaplex.com

About This Role

The 1st Party team makes it easier for non-technical creators and collectors to use Metaplex’s tools and experience NFTs. This includes no-code interfaces for minting NFTs, managing collections, and more.

We are looking for a product designer who brings a customer focus to their work, balances qualitative and quantitative inputs, and excels at partnering with both product and engineering teams.

What You'll Need

  • Demonstrated success working on consumer products that span desktop and mobile. Bonus if your prior experience includes working on creator experiences, commerce platforms, marketplaces, or similar products.
  • Ability to lead and oversee the user experience of a feature, product, and/or suite of products from conception to launch.
  • An interest in working closely with product engineers and product managers to identify new product opportunities.
  • Strong communication skills. You’re able to grasp technical concepts and turn them into simple solutions for non-technical audiences.
  • You enjoy zero-to-one products, early evolving technology, and are comfortable experimenting and iterating toward confidence. You are comfortable defining new opportunities (vs optimization). Able to balance long-term vision with focused execution.
  • Strong interest in web3, from the overall NFT market dynamics to the creation process. You have already minted, bought, and sold NFTs, and can articulate current pain points and opportunities for NFTs, DAOs, and the most important problems to solve for creators.
  • Bonus: experience working with remote teams.

Required

  • 7+ years of product design experience, including working on consumer products.
  • Strong interest in web3 and NFTs.
  • Experience with zero-to-one, early stage products.
  • Customer focused prioritization, balance of qualitative and quantitative inputs.
  • Demonstrated collaborative approach to working with product and engineering teams.
  • Intentional use of design artifacts to explore and communicate the user experience at various stages of the design process, including user stories, flow diagrams, wireframes, early mockups, prototypes, and high fidelity final deliverables.
  • Experience leading product design vision on a team with multiple designers. Influencing design culture on the team, and helping establish best practices in design process, collaboration, and execution.
  • Able to tackle ambiguous problems, and drive clarity and prioritization. Often able to take first pass at product requirements. Product and engineering partners trust your product thinking, and values your expertise and insights.
  • Collaborate closely with product and engineering to shape strategic prioritization on a 3-6 month roadmap.
  • Clear Communication. Able to present product design ideas to cross-functional teams and senior leadership, and use design artifacts to drive decision making and alignment.

Nice to have

  • Experience working closely with user research to validate and iterate on designs.
  • Deep understanding of the Solana ecosystem, players, and competitive landscape.
