Proof of work
The team
Kraken’s On-Chain Content team is growing fast, and we’re looking for a mid-level Senior Video and Content Creator who blends hands-on craft with the ability to orchestrate external specialists. You’ll shape and scale the visual identity of Kraken’s on-chain initiatives—working where speed, taste, Web3 culture, and experimentation converge. You’ll partner closely across Marketing, Product, and ecosystem teams to build an aesthetic that feels unmistakably crypto-native while meeting Kraken’s standard of precision and polish.
The opportunity
- Produce high-quality static and motion assets using Figma, templates, and generative-AI tools.
- Build a rapid video and content pipeline for social, product launches, ecosystem updates, and on-chain activations.
- Create short-form motion pieces (6–15s), including 2D animation, UI motion, and lightweight product visualization.
- Develop scalable asset systems: templates, motion libraries, and style guidelines.
- Lead or co-produce video work—setting creative direction, reviewing treatments, and managing external agencies.
- Translate abstract Web3 concepts into visual systems, moodboards, and concept frames.
- Manage external designers, animators, and production partners with clear direction and efficient reviews.
- Ensure marketing visuals and product UI remain aesthetically unified across every on-chain touchpoint.
Skills you should HODL
- 4–7 years in design, motion, or creative roles within crypto, fintech, tech startups, agencies, or high-velocity creative teams.
- Ability to operate as both hands-on creator and production manager.
- Strong 2D motion design abilities and working proficiency in After Effects (or similar tools).
- Fluency in Figma and comfort using generative AI across image and video workflows.
- Portfolio demonstrating brand systems, social content, motion graphics, and multi-asset campaigns.
- Understanding of DeFi mechanics, crypto UX patterns, and on-chain user norms.
- Familiarity with the crypto aesthetic spectrum—from minimalism to degen energy to product-led clarity.
- Ability to move quickly without losing attention to detail or craft.
Nice to haves
- Light 3D skills or the ability to direct 3D studios effectively.
- Experience designing UI animations tied to real product interactions.
- Comfort visualizing technical concepts—protocol flows, architectures, or on-chain data.
- Ability to write short-form creative copy for scripts, videos, or social assets.
- Familiarity with multi-chain ecosystems, L2s, cross-chain messaging, and incentive design.
