Senior Visual Designer
Job description
About the role
OKX will be prioritising applicants who have a current right to work in Singapore, and do not require OKX's sponsorship of a visa.
You will own the visual design for key product surfaces across trading, wallet, payments, and social experiences, ensuring that each touchpoint reflects a cohesive and trusted brand expression. You will shape visual concepts early in the product process, translating ambiguous ideas into clear visual direction before handing off to execution. You will craft the visual layer that makes OKX products feel distinctive, coherent, and aligned with our core principles of We Before Me, Do the Right Thing, and Get Things Done. You will work closely with the Design System and Content System teams to contribute to scalable visual frameworks such as illustration guidelines, motion principles, iconography standards, and brand-in-product patterns. You will raise craft standards across the organization by delivering pixel-perfect, production-ready designs that balance beauty with clarity in a domain where trust and usability are non-negotiable. You will partner with product teams to integrate brand moments into product flows, ensuring that visual systems scale consistently across a global ecosystem used by millions.
