Nubank The Head of Design, Digital Assets will lead design efforts to create simple, accessible, and trusted digital asset experiences. This role focuses on consumer product design intersecting with financial innovation and zero-to-one invention.
Responsibilities
We are looking for a hands-on design leader to join the Digital Assets team in Palo Alto. You will be the lead design voice for a genuinely new category: making digital assets — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and stablecoins — as simple, accessible, and trusted as a debit card swipe.
This role sits at the intersection of consumer product design, financial innovation, and zero-to-one invention. Much of what you will design has never existed in consumer form before. You will not be asked to study what the incumbents did; the explicit instruction is to carve a new path.
What You Will Design
The buy, hold, and sell experience for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Digital Dollars, etc. — designed to feel intuitive, familiar, and clear from the first interaction.
Earning, also known as staking: an experience that lets customers put eligible digital assets to work and earn rewards with clarity, control, and trust — without exposing the protocol mechanics underneath.
Onchain transfers and payments: sending, receiving, and using digital assets in ways that feel as simple and dependable as moving money today, while the underlying blockchain complexity stays out of the customer’s way.
The invisible infrastructure layer that powers core functionality across the entire company, including the US build.
Both the customer experience and the platform that other teams will draw on for future launches.
New ways for people to own, move, use, and grow value across financial products and borders — shaping a flexible foundation for what open money can become without being constrained by today’s conventions.
What We Are Looking For
Consumer instincts over crypto fluency. Deep domain experience in crypto is not the point here — and can even work against you. If your instinct is to explain custody models or gas fees to a customer, this is not the seat.
Mobile expertise is a must-have. There is no desktop app in Brazil; effectively no web. Strong recent mobile work is non-negotiable, and a primarily B2B or enterprise background is a hard fit.
