Company mission
To unlock the collaborative power of communities by making Web 3.0 universally easy to use, access and build on.
Role
Who you are
- You’ve spent 6+ years working with motion in digital products, using animation and interaction to make complex experiences easier to understand
- You define motion languages and patterns that create consistency across screens, features, and platforms
- You build scalable systems—guidelines, reusable assets, or components—that help teams apply motion without starting from scratch
- You work closely with engineers to bring motion into production in ways that feel smooth, perform well, and hold up across platforms
- You use prototyping to explore and communicate ideas, helping teams align on how things should move and respond
- You balance clarity and delight, knowing when motion helps guide someone and when it might get in the way
- You raise the bar for craft, through feedback, collaboration, and hands-on contribution
- Don't meet all the requirements? Don't sweat it. We’re passionate about building a diverse team of humans and as such, if you think you've got what it takes for our chaotic-but-fun, remote-friendly, start-up environment—apply anyway
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Staff Motion Designer to join our Design Systems team
- In this role, you’ll shape how motion shows up across MetaMask—from small interaction details to larger moments of expression
- A core part of the work is defining a shared motion language and building systems that help teams use it consistently across the product
- This role sits within the design system, but it’s not just about documentation
- You’ll be making things—prototyping, exploring, refining—and working closely with designers and engineers to bring motion into the product in a way that scales
- Use motion to make the product easier to understand—helping people see what’s happening, what changed, and what to do next
- Define a clear, shared motion language for MetaMask—how things move, respond, and feel across surfaces
- Build patterns, guidelines, and reusable assets that allow motion to scale across teams and platforms
- Introduce moments of delight where they add value, without getting in the way
- Partner with product designers and engineers to bring motion into the product in a way that feels natural and performs well
- Use prototypes to explore and communicate interaction ideas
- Contribute to the overall level of craft across the team through feedback and collaboration
Our take
ConsenSys is an Ethereum software company that creates blockchain tools and infrastructure, allowing businesses to build the next generation of digital and tech applications. It has also moved forward into the Web 3.0 and metaverse space, continuing the principles of building a digital, decentralised economy.
The company's founder had already created the revolutionary Ethereum, and launched ConsenSys Software and ConsenSys Mesh, a blockchain investment company, to “harness” the powerful capabilities of Ethereum. Despite unicorn status, the company operates in unpredictable territory. Several bursts of reorganisation and a “merge” of sister company Ethereum means change is the norm for ConsenSys.
Regardless, the revolutionary technology and continuous breakthroughs that ConsenSys and the companies it invests in spearhead, show that they're flexible enough to maintain momentum. The business is extremely well-funded and eyeing up another fundraise which could see it valued at $3 billion.
