The Role

The BitGo Design Team is responsible for the user experience of using our software. We're committed to creating a tight-knit team environment that fosters trust, integrity, empathy, and growth. We work together in realizing a shared product vision, and regularly give feedback and critique to each other. Product design at BitGo is a varied experience. On a given day, you might be: leading a design sprint for your product team; designing a micro-interaction to make a complex analytical task feel simple; and/or advocating for UX consistency by creating flexible, reusable UI components.

Responsibilities

  • Work closely with engineers and product managers to define both the long-term strategy and the short-term tactics for our products
  • Work closely with fellow designers and engineers to develop and expand product's design system
  • Sometimes work on very broadly defined, loose concepts, and sometimes on narrowly defined, tactical deliverables
  • Focus on what you do best — whether that’s sketches, wireframes, prototypes, designs, or code—and you’ll have the opportunity to sharpen the skills you’re looking to develop
  • Research new software or design concepts
  • Review final layouts and suggest improvements, as needed
  • Create designs, concepts, and sample layouts, based on knowledge of layout principles and esthetic design concepts
  • Work in a highly collaborative fashion with the design, product, and engineering teams
  • Participate in design reviews and share your work regularly with the design and company leadership

Skills & Experience

  • Can reduce complex problems down to the right balance of flexibility, power, and ease of use
  • Keep pushing your work until all details are attended to
  • Are persuasive and humble in explaining your work, process, and decisions and crave feedback to help you design at your best
  • Are an expert in either UI, UX, or visual design, but skilled in more disciplines across product design
  • You care about details and are excited to keep pushing your work until is pixel-perfect
  • Think in systems and are able to extrapolate and extend shared patterns and behaviors
  • Love working with other designers to help them learn and grow—and have them help you learn and grow
  • Are passionate about BitGo's mission, are dedicated to a user-first mindset, and have experience working with data and insights
  • Have 5+ years relevant design experience at a tech, product-driven company

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor required by law to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We are also required to measure our progress toward having at least 7% of our workforce be individuals with disabilities. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had a disability. Because a person may become disabled at any time, we ask all of our employees to update their information at least every five years.

Identifying yourself as an individual with a disability is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer will be maintained confidentially and not be seen by selecting officials or anyone else involved in making personnel decisions. Completing the form will not negatively impact you in any way, regardless of whether you have self-identified in the past. For more information about this form or the equal employment obligations of federal contractors under Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
