Hybrid
Our design organization is in the middle of a meaningful transformation: raising craft standards, building tighter brand-to-product coherence, and embedding AI into how we work. We're backed by our core principles — We Before Me, Do the Right Thing, and Get Things Done — and we take those seriously in how we hire, build, and ship.
We're looking for a Design Director of Visual Systems to own the visual language, creative quality, and brand coherence of OKX's product experiences. The core mandate: build and scale the visual infrastructure that ensures brand intent translates into what users actually see in the product.
OKX has strong Brand and Product Design teams — and the opportunity now is to bring them closer together through shared visual infrastructure. We need someone who can build that connective layer: shared visual systems, shared language, and a creative infrastructure that ensures brand strategy is embedded into every screen from the start.
You'll lead and grow a global team of visual designers, set art direction across product and campaign work, and define the visual systems and frameworks that let us scale quality without scaling headcount linearly.
Why This Role Is Interesting
You'd be joining at a moment where OKX is investing heavily in design infrastructure as a competitive advantage. You won't just be making things look good — you'll be building the foundational visual layer that determines how products are constructed. The products span trading, DeFi, wallet, payments, and social — each with millions of users and distinct design challenges. The brand is ambitious and growing. The team is global. And the company is actively building AI into its design workflows, which means you'll have room to experiment with how visual output is produced and systematized, not just what it looks like.
This isn't a maintenance role. It's a build role — you're creating the visual systems layer from the ground up.
