Who We Are


At OKX, we believe that the future will be reshaped by crypto, and ultimately contribute to every individual's freedom. OKX is a leading crypto exchange, and the developer of OKX Wallet, giving millions access to crypto trading and decentralized crypto applications (dApps). OKX is also a trusted brand by hundreds of large institutions seeking access to crypto markets. We are safe and reliable, backed by our Proof of Reserves. Across our multiple offices globally, we are united by our core principles: We Before Me, Do the Right Thing, and Get Things Done. These shared values drive our culture, shape our processes, and foster a friendly, rewarding, and diverse environment for every OK-er. OKX is part of OKG, a group that brings the value of Blockchain to users around the world, through our leading products OKX, OKX Wallet, OKLink and more.
 

About the Opportunity

The Fiat team builds the money experiences of OKX. Beyond the payment rails — fiat deposits, withdrawals, and payment methods across 100+ markets — we own Simple Buy/Sell, the front door to crypto for both onshore and offshore markets, and Cards & Pay, the products taking OKX into the money app category and giving customers a whole new reason to connect with us. We sit inside the Bay Area AI-Native Product & Engineering Center: we don't just use AI tools, we build agent harnesses, evaluation pipelines, and automation that lets a small team ship like a large one. We're looking for a front-end engineer who is sharp, curious, data-driven, and believes most "impossible" things simply haven't been automated yet.
 
 

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Own and ship the money experiences of OKX — fiat deposit/withdraw, Simple Buy/Sell for onshore and offshore markets, and Cards & Pay —the surfaces used by millions of users.
  • Build AI-native engineering infrastructure: agent harnesses, reusable skills, E2E automation, and evaluation pipelines that multiply the whole team's output.
  • Make the product data-driven: instrument what you ship, build the tracking and experimentation foundations yourself when they don't exist, and let the numbers decide.
  • Drive frontend quality end-to-end — architecture, performance, testing, and server-driven UI systems that stay backward-compatible in production.
  • Work directly with product, design, and backend teams across the US and APAC to turn ambiguous requirements into shipped features.
  • Contribute tooling, patterns, and practices beyond your own team — what you build should raise the bar for the wider engineering group.
 

What We Look For In You

  • Strong computer science fundamentals and frontend essentials — TypeScript, React, modern toolchains (Vite), browser internals, and state management. Depth beyond framework APIs.
  • A good sense of web performance, responsive design, and web security — you build experiences that are fast, adaptive across devices, and safe by default.
  • Hands-on creativity with AI-assisted development: you've built things around models — agents, harnesses, MCP tools, eval loops, CI gates — not just used autocomplete.
  • Sharp problem-solving: you root-cause ambiguous problems quickly and make sound calls with incomplete information.
  • Self-driven and resilient: you learn faster than expected, push hard deliveries through to completion, and contribute beyond your own scope.
  • A conviction that decisions should be data-driven — and the willingness to get your hands dirty building the instrumentation and infrastructure when it doesn't exist yet.
  • BS/MS in Computer Science or a related field from a strong program, or equivalent evidence of exceptional ability.
  • Proficiency in Mandarin Chinese is required to communicate effectively with our engineering and product teams across APAC.
 

Nice to Haves

  • You've shipped developer tooling, design systems, or open-source work that other engineers adopted.
  • Familiarity with server-driven UI, module federation, or large-scale frontend library architecture.
  • E2E automation experience with Playwright — bonus points if you've taught an AI agent to write and maintain the tests for you.
  • Experience in payments, fintech, or trading products.
 

Perks & Benefits

  • Competitive total compensation package
  • L&D programs and Education subsidy for employees' growth and development
  • Various team building programs and company events
  • Wellness and meal allowances 
  • Comprehensive healthcare schemes for employees and dependants 
  • More that we love to tell you along the process!
