The DFINITY Foundation’s mission is to build, promote, and maintain the Internet Computer — the world’s first web-speed, internet-scale public blockchain. It enables smart contracts to securely serve interactive web content directly into the browsers of end users, making it possible to build dapps, DeFi, open internet services, and enterprise systems that are capable of operating at hyperscale. The Internet Computer uses smart contracts to power an emerging decentralized ecosystem of interoperable dapps and services, where nearly every system and service can run in reimagined form on public blockchain.

With more user facing products and user adoption, DFINITY is looking for a creative, experienced, and collaborative UI/UX lead to join our team and accelerate the adoption of the Internet Computer blockchain.

About You:

  • You over analyze the usability every website you visit
  • You have built web applications - both for desktop and mobile (a link to a portfolio is appreciated). Our main focus is Web apps, but mobile experience is a plus
  • You live and breathe design, aesthetics, intuitive UX
  • You understand the purpose and the underlying technologies of the user facing apps and strive for making them appealing and simple to use
  • You optimize your workflow for iterations rather than “the one end-all design”. There is always room for improvement and a next step to take
  • You are fearless. You have jumped in and designed for different platforms or audiences. Crypto/Blockchain experience is a big plus. We are an ambitious startup and our UI/UX is one of the main drivers for the adoption
  • You hear and appreciate opinions and tastes of different parties. You can reconcile all inputs, synthesize a good solution, and can explain why this is the right approach.
  • You have knowledge and understanding of various design systems, frontend frameworks, and processes for implementing user-facing software
  • You know basic front-end: HTML, CSS, JS, but are looking for a place where you can flex your software muscle

Responsibilities:

As a UI/UX lead, you will work towards creating a world-class user experience. You will be shaping up the major user-facing components of the Internet Computer ecosystem in the areas of governance and identity user experience (wallets, authentication systems, DeFi). Your responsibilities include:

  • Improve UI/UX of the existing functionality and developing UI/UX for new features for system dapps like Internet Identity and NNS Frontend
  • Conduct usability testing and help identify priorities for usability improvements
  • Work with the leadership and product teams to shape the product and brand strategy of the system user-facing dapps
  • Create storyboards, wireframes and screen flows
  • Work very closely with frontend developers (we use Svelte framework) to ship UX features and improvements
  • Partner with the Design and Editorial teams to scope and execute an end-to-end digital content strategy and brand identity
