UX Lead
We are looking for a UX lead to join the product team and take full ownership of the user experience across our ecosystem. This role is for someone who thinks beyond UI — you’ll own how people feel when they use our products. You will lead the product design function, mentor and grow a small team of designers, re-architect the design system, and embed AI into our design and feedback workflows.
You will also be a key driver of how our product communicates with users — from visual design and interaction flows to support messages and empty states. This is a leadership role for someone excited to shape a design culture in a product-led, crypto-fintech environment.
Key responsibilities:
- Own the end-to-end user experience across all Mercuryo products: on-ramp, off-ramp, cards, swaps, recurring buys, dashboards, etc.
- Lead, mentor, and grow the product design team
- Improve and maintain the design system to make it clear, consistent, and easy to scale
- Collaborate closely with product managers, engineers, data analysts, and customer success to integrate design into every stage of product development
- Implement and maintain workflows that connect designers with the rest of the team (engineers, PMs, data analysts, business analysts, compliance)
- Apply AI tools to help designers move faster and make smarter decisions, like collecting feedback, creating prototypes, and testing usability
- Contribute to strategy by surfacing user insights and turning them into actionable design opportunities
- Ensure UX quality at every release — from new features to UX debt fixes
- Represent the voice of the user in internal discussions and ensure empathy is built into every interaction
What we’re looking for:
- 5+ years of product design experience, including 2+ years in a lead or managerial role
- Proven track record of leading design teams in fast-paced product environments
- Experience working in fintech or crypto is a strong plus
- Strong understanding of systems thinking and component-based design
- Deep understanding of usability, accessibility, and design for conversion
- Interest in using AI to improve design processes like workflows, research, and iteration
- Excellent communication and storytelling skills
