• Own 1-2 major projects at any time, serving as the design lead who shapes solutions from initial problem exploration through final implementation
• Partner closely with the product management team to frame problems, define project scope, explore multiple design approaches, and make well-reasoned recommendations
• Provide production-ready mocks and assets, and work closely with engineers to balance quality and feasibility
• Conduct user research and usability testing to validate design decisions and understand user goals
• When challenges arise, proactively align stakeholders, propose solutions, and adjust scope as needed
• Help shape the future of our product by contributing to product strategy and roadmap discussions

What Skills Are Needed For This Role?

Experience & Skills

• 5+ years of experience designing products that have been used by end users and clients at scale
• Proven track record of solving complex real-world problems with strategic thinking and elegant, user-centered solutions
• Proficiency with the full design toolkit: wireframing, user flows, high-fidelity mocks, prototyping, user interviews, and usability testing
• Expert-level skills with design tools like Figma, including advanced features like components and design libraries
• Experience maintaining visual and interaction consistency by working within established design systems and contributing to their evolution
• Strong visual design foundation with attention to detail and pixel-perfect execution
• Understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1) and inclusive design principles
• Experience designing responsive Web/Mobile experiences
• Understanding of HTML/CSS and development constraints
• Experience designing AI-powered features that enhance user workflows and personalize experiences is a plus
• Familiarity with GenAI tools to accelerate workflows is a plus

Preferred Qualifications

Collaborative leadership: You excel at building productive relationships with cross-functional partners of varying experience levels, from PMs to engineers

Strategic communication: You present complex ideas clearly, anticipate concerns, and lead productive discussions that result in actionable outcomes

Adaptive problem-solving: You stay focused on core problems while remaining flexible when new information or priorities emerge
