We are seeking an experienced UI Graphic Designer to create interfaces and user flows for our various digital products across websites, games, and interactive experiences. Working hand-in-hand with engineers, you'll help transform your designs into functional interfaces, ensuring smooth implementation and optimal performance. The ideal candidate combines strong user understanding and a love of great user experiences with the ability to execute beautiful UI.

This role utilizes a variety of tools to create inspiring and dynamic concepts and illustrations. You will collaborate with other artists, writers, designers, and developers in a global, remote working environment to deliver seamless, engaging, and innovative user experiences in DuskBreakers and beyond.

• Experience managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced, time sensitive environment.

Bonus

Candidates should be comfortable working in a remote, fast-paced, fluid, and ever-changing startup environment with a globally distributed team. We are currently remote first and will always embrace work from home culture, although we may have some more offices in the future. Candidates should be excited about the future potential of blockchain, but no prior experience is required.
