Job Description

Raycash is a team currently incubated inside of Zama. We are reimagining digital money for the real economy, combining the privacy of banking with the openness of blockchain. Powered by Zama’s Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), Raycash enables confidential on-chain transactions without compromising compliance or decentralisation.

Our mission is to bring financial privacy to the internet age. By wrapping fiat-backed stablecoins such as USDC and USDT into encrypted, one-to-one confidential tokens, Raycash allows users and businesses to transact privately, with balances and amounts visible only to authorised parties.

We’re now taking this technology mainstream with the Raycash app — everything you expect from a modern banking experience: IBANs, cards and privacy, but rebuilt on-chain with private digital dollars so you remain fully in control of your money. No banks. No middlemen. Just you.

Say goodbye to frozen funds, slow transfers and needless fees. Raycash gives you the control of crypto, the privacy of banking and the simplicity of everyday money.

You will:

  • Own and evolve the end-to-end UX/UI across mobile and web, including wallets, dashboards and compliance flows

  • Map user journeys, flows, wireframes and interfaces from concept to delivery

  • Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering and Compliance to turn complex crypto logic into clear, intuitive design

  • Build and maintain the Raycash design system and component library

  • Support user research, usability testing, and roadmap planning (under Tom’s guidance)

  • Help shape culture and build the design function as we grow

Preferred Experience

  • 5+ years in product design — fintech, crypto, or complex UX systems preferred

  • A portfolio that shows clarity of thought, strong craft, and mobile/web experience

  • End-to-end skills: from lo-fi wireframes to hi-fi mocks and handoff

  • Proficiency with modern tools: Figma, Notion, Google Suite, Slack etc.

  • Bonus: animation (Lottie), light front-end (HTML/CSS), genuine interest in Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs)

  • You’re proactive, self-directed, and excited to build alongside engineers and founders

  • Why You’ll Love It

    • No legacy — build a zero-to-one product with no design debt
    • Your design will directly shape user trust, adoption, and the company brand
    • Work on problems that actually matter, with a lean, senior team
    • Ability to work with and draw inspiration from the world-class product marketing teams at Zama
    • Play a key role in defining the future of private, compliant digital finance
