Through our product suite, including the MetaMask platform, Infura, Linea, Diligence, and our NFT toolkit Phosphor, we have become the trusted collaborator for users, creators, and developers on their path to build and belong in the world they want to see.

You’ll join a network of builders that reaches the edge of our ecosystem. Consensys alumni have moved on to become tech entrepreneurs, CEOs, and team leads at tech companies. About this role We're looking for a Senior Design Engineer who sweats the details - someone who feels just as at home in Figma as they do in a codebase, and who believes great software should feel like magic. You'll bring that quality of craft to 30M+ MetaMask users every day. As a Senior Design Engineer, you’ll play a critical role in bridging the gap between design and engineering across the MetaMask app and browser extension. You’ll collaborate with a world-class team of designers, engineers, and product managers to bring prototypes to life, polish final implementations, and ensure that every interaction feels seamless and intentional. Your focus will be on pixel-perfect execution, cross-platform UI, and crafting world-class experiences in React (web) and React Native (mobile). If you are passionate about building exceptional consumer products, love making complex things feel simple - and want your craft in the hands of 30M+ users - this role is for you. What You’ll Do In one sentence: Own and elevate the user-facing experience of MetaMask - turning complex Web3 interactions into intuitive, beautiful moments that users love. Build pixel-perfect user interfaces with React and React Native. Simplify complex Web3 interactions, and deliver a seamless experience across mobile and extension. Create intuitive, responsive, and accessible user experiences with smooth transitions and usability in mind. Develop high-fidelity, interactive prototypes to test and validate ideas for fast iteration. Collaborate closely with product designers and engineers to streamline Figma-to-code handoffs and ensure efficient workflows. Contribute to the MetaMask design system by building reusable, scalable, and accessible UI components. Write clean, optimized code to deliver performant animations, interactions, and frontend experiences. Maintain high-quality documentation of components, workflows, and best practices for future collaboration. Key Experience for this role A portfolio demonstrating sophisticated UI craft, thoughtful interactions, and attention to detail - this is required; if you don't have one, this role may not be the right fit. Expertise in modern Javascript/Typescript, React, and React Native, with experience building web and mobile interfaces. Proven experience building and scaling high-traffic, consumer-facing products with seamless user experiences. Experience delivering pixel-perfect, high-fidelity interfaces with attention to detail. Expertise in building consistent cross-platform user experiences with a focus on accessibility and performance. Hands-on knowledge of design systems, design tokens, and shared component libraries. Proficiency in interaction design, animation frameworks (e.g. Rive, Lottie), and optimizing transitions. Deep familiarity with Figma, including translating designs into well-structured code. Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work independently in global remote teams. Passion for building polished, user-centered experiences that make complex tasks simple. Knowledge of or interest in Web3 technologies, with bonus points for experience in crypto wallets, blockchain, or related products. Don't meet all the requirements? Don't sweat it.
