Role details
Job description
Novel is the no-code platform for NFT commerce backed by top angels and funds across e-commerce and web3. Novel’s first product is a Shopify plug-in that gives brands and creators the ability to create and sell NFTs within their existing store or a brand new one.
At Novel, we are driven by a vision to accelerate the mainstream adoption of NFTs by reducing the sale and purchase of them to a trivial concern. The market cap for NFTs is already over $31bn; by eliminating large technical barriers for both creators and consumers, Novel will open the floodgates for NFT adoption.
On our team, you will bring this vision to life alongside a world-class team backed by investors deeply integrated in the e-commerce ecosystems. Joining a company at the earliest and most dynamic stage— in a market that’s equally early and quickly evolving— means you must be both ambitious and resourceful, keen to solve problems with no set playbook.
You will
- Own and drive the visual and technical direction of our design systems
- Collaborate with the founders, product, and engineering on design, product strategy, and delivery
- Synthesize user feedback into actionable designs that delight our customers
Need to Have
- A strong aptitude for UI/UX, prototyping, visual design, interaction design, typography, layout, and visual hierarchy
- Experience with Figma, CSS, and Typescript
- A scrappy self-starter mentality with an interest in helping build processes and tools as needed
Nice to Have
- Strong interest in web3
- Experience working in e-commerce
- Experience working at a startup
Perks
- Comprehensive medical, vision and dental health plans
- Competitive compensation and equity
- Flexible vacation policy
