About OG.com

OG.com is a fast-growing, CFTC-regulated Prediction Market platform powered by cutting-edge technology. We’re building an engaging marketplace where users trade on real-world outcomes - from major sports and elections to cultural and financial events. With a sleek mobile-first app and a passionate community, we’re redefining how people interact with news, probabilities, and financial markets. OG.com runs on the rails of North American Derivatives Exchange, Inc. (NADEX), a CFTC-regulated exchange operating since 2004 and was acquired by Crypto.com in 2022.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a Product Designer to help shape the next generation of consumer prediction-market experiences at OG. You’ll design intuitive, trustworthy journeys that enable people to discover, understand, and participate in predictions across sports, finance, politics, culture, and entertainment.

Working closely with Product, Engineering, Research, and other cross-functional partners, you’ll take complex problems from discovery through launch. You’ll turn user insights and product data into clear design decisions, develop flows and prototypes, and help create experiences that balance simplicity, engagement, and transparency.

This role is ideal for a hands-on designer who enjoys working across the full product lifecycle, managing multiple priorities, and solving challenging UX problems in a fast-moving environment. You’ll contribute to a shared design system, influence product direction through your design work, and help establish a high bar for consumer experiences where trust, speed, and clarity are essential.

What You'll Actually Do:

• Own design strategy end-to-end. You set the design principles and standards for each product alongside product and market requirements. You make the craft call. Nothing ships without meeting your bar.
• Ship journeys, not screens. You define customer journeys and solve complex UX problems with urgency - from discovery through prototype to production - in lockstep with product and engineering.
• Drive product strategy through design. You present design direction, decisions, and rationale to senior stakeholders. You don't decorate a roadmap; you shape it.
• Own the design system. You oversee and contribute to the shared system so quality scales across teams instead of fragmenting into one-off UI.
• Turn data and research into decisions. You dig into user behavior, run interviews, focus groups, and usability tests, and turn insights into roadmap-changing recommendations - not slide decks that die in a folder.

Requirements:

• 3+ years professional experience working as a Product Designer.
• Proven B2C product design experience. You have owned design for digital consumer products at meaningful scale and can walk through a launch where you set the craft bar, navigated stakeholder conflict, and shipped.
• Portfolio that proves end-to-end ownership. You can show journeys you owned - not just polished screens -including the problem, the tradeoffs, and what moved after ship. A portfolio is required to be considered.
• User-centered craft with business teeth. You apply UX principles in service of outcomes. You can describe a time you chose the harder UX path because the data (or the user behavior) demanded it - and what the number did.
• Multi-project shipping at scale. You have run several workstreams in parallel and can point to how you sequenced, cut scope, and still shipped quality.
• Executive presence. You translate creative vision into business language. You have aligned senior stakeholders on a design direction when opinions conflicted, and you can recount the decision and the aftermath.

Nice to have:

• Prediction, Fintech, Crypto, or Trading UX: Proven track record designing money-moving or high-stakes financial flows where trust, risk visibility, and clarity are core to the product.
• AI-Assisted Design & Prototyping: Hands-on experience using AI productively in your design workflow, including AI-powered exploration and prototyping with Cursor, Claude Code, or similar tools.
• Technical and Engineering Fluency: Familiarity with front-end development concepts, coding, GitHub, and technologies such as React - or demonstrated ability to collaborate closely with engineering teams and work effectively within technical constraints.
• Design Systems at Scale: Experience evolving and maintaining design systems across multiple product squads, with demonstrable adoption beyond standard Figma libraries.
• Research Ops Fluency: Ability to establish lightweight, repeatable research cadences that product and engineering teams actively utilize.

Why this role:

• Own meaningful product experiences: Take complex user journeys from discovery and research through flows, prototypes, launch, and iteration - and see your work directly influence the customer experience.
• Design for trust and clarity: Solve the unique challenge of making real-time, data-rich, and potentially money-related experiences feel intuitive, transparent, and accessible.
• Work closely with decision-makers: Partner with Product, Engineering, Research, and senior design leaders to turn user insight into product direction and shipped experiences.
• Grow your craft at scale: Contribute to a shared design system, work across multiple product challenges, and develop your ability to balance user needs, business outcomes, and technical constraints.
• Join at an important moment: OG is building its U.S. product foundation now, giving you the opportunity to make a visible impact as the experience and design practice evolve.
