Senior Designer - Otherlife at moonpay

About Otherlife Hi, we’re Otherlife. We’re here to design how people experience the next era of the internet. We work at the intersection of culture, design, and emerging technology. Why? Because design is how people connect with new technology. As Web3 and digital identity grow, we need experiences that are clear, simple, and easy to use. When design gets this wrong, emerging technology feels inaccessible or intimidating. When it gets it right, it invites people in. Creativity helps make it all feel more human, turning complex systems into experiences people actually want to use.. What we do Otherlife is MoonPay’s digital creative studio. We help brands find their place in Web3 and emerging tech through strategy, branding, and digital experience design. We create end-to-end solutions for leading companies like Mastercard, Arsenal FC, Coinbase, OpenSea, and Shopify. From brand identities and interactive platforms to on-chain experiences. Our work blends strategy, design, storytelling, and technical fluency, with a focus on clarity, usability and cultural relevance. We care deeply about craft and about building work that lasts beyond a launch moment. With MoonPay’s infrastructure behind us, we’re able to turn ambitious creative ideas into real, scalable products and experiences. What’s next This is a moment of evolution for Otherlife; our scope is expanding, the work is getting bigger, and the opportunity for impact has never been greater. The digital world is changing fast, and we’re always exploring new ways for brands and communities to connect. If you’re excited about making emerging technology more intuitive, accessible, and creative, we’d love to work with you. Come help design the future with Otherlife.
