Design intuitive, easy-to-understand user experiences that enhance the overall product. Create and iterate on flows, prototypes, and high-fidelity visuals to communicate ideas. Actively contribute to product-level decision-making by participating in team meetings, cross-functional groups, and collaborative feedback sessions. Consistently deliver work that is well-thought-out and aligned with project goals. Demonstrate sustained productivity and meet project deadlines by accurately estimating the time required for tasks. Set an example for designers in your orbit through mentorship and open, honest feedback. Qualifications As an applicant to this role, we ask that your portfolio demonstrates: 5+ years of relevant industry experience. Experience shipping high-utility mobile or desktop applications, simplifying complex user flows, or delivering new product innovation that disrupted conventions. Expert understanding of user-centered design principles and best practices. Self-motivated problem solving with the ability to work on multiple projects simultaneously. Ability to communicate complex concepts clearly and persuasively. Hunger for innovation, fluidity with ideas, eagerness to challenge the status quo. Strong interest in and aptitude for learning new technologies and design skills. Strong work ethic, reliability, adaptability, and collaboration skills. Ability to design within design guides and contribute to design language. Expert knowledge of Figma and/or other design tools. BA/BS or equivalent experience required.
