#12: Web3, side hustles, AI tools— how Rice designs and hires for the future | Rice Tseng (Senior Design Manager@OKX)
🎙 What happens when you leave a safe job at Yahoo Taiwan, jump headfirst into Grab’s wild hyper-growth phase, and end up leading design at a Web3 giant? Rice Lee has lived it—and she’s spilling everything.
In this episode, Rice—now Senior Designer Manager at OKX and author of "我28歲,領世界級薪水:從指考英文20分,到影響6億人日常生活的首席設計師."—gets real about her biggest career jumps. From moving to Singapore without speaking fluent English, to experience Grab’s design team from 10 to 180, to juggling life as a designer, author, and podcaster without losing her mind.
We spoke about:
✅ Why Web3 design is a different beast (and why she loves it)✅ How she wrote a book, launched a podcast, and still found time to have a life✅ What young designers need to know to survive AI (don’t panic—just get curious)
This isn’t one of those sugar-coated success stories. Rice keeps it real about the struggles, wins, and lessons from her career. If you’ve ever wondered how to actually grow in design while keeping your sanity, you’ll want to listen to this one. 🎧
