We build interactive prototypes as real code, design marketing assets that explain complex infrastructure simply, and collaborate directly with engineering. The team is tight-knit, opinionated about craft, and moves quickly. What you'll do This role is primarily focused on Spark. You'll be the designer shaping how the world experiences a new Bitcoin payment layer, through product, demos, and everything in between. Build the product. Own the design of Spark's developer-facing tools, dashboards, and wallet experiences. Make the complexity of L2 infrastructure, stablecoin settlement, and multi-chain interoperability feel simple and trustworthy. Ship prototypes and demos. Build functional, high-fidelity prototypes that show partners and prospects what Spark can do, not mockups, but working software you can tap through and share. Think interactive demos, proof-of-concept integrations, scenario walkthroughs. Create marketing and launch assets. Design and build pages, visuals, and materials that communicate Spark's capabilities to developers, enterprises, and the broader crypto ecosystem. You'll help tell the story of what's possible. Work across Lightspark. While Spark is your primary focus, you'll contribute to the broader Lightspark product and brand alongside three other designers. Small team means you'll have range. Use AI to move faster. AI isn't a bullet point here, it's how the team works. You'll use tools like Cursor and Claude to prototype, iterate on UI, and compress the distance between idea and shipped product. Who you are Minimum 5+ years of experience shipping high-quality digital products at a product-driven company Strong visual and interaction design s
