• You are able to take complex requirements, customer needs, and business goals and create elegant, simple design solutions that are scalable and easy to use.
• You have a strong grounding in user-centered design and leverage research insights to explore and iterate on solutions and then validate your designs with customers. You think holistically through the customer journey from marketing and branding to retention and engagement.
• You collaborate and communicate extremely well with team members across multiple disciplines to understand and align on opportunities, problems to solve, and principles guiding decisions.
• You are well-versed in using design systems and understand the importance to customers of consistent, repeatable, interaction patterns.
• You are an excellent communicator both verbally and in writing. You are able to articulate your design choices, communicate trade-offs, and explain alternatives.

Here’s more of what you will get to do:

• Lead and execute design through all phases of the product development process - from research and insights, design explorations and iteration, to final design handoff to engineering.
• Work with project managers and engineering to define the schedule of design phases, deliverables, reviews, and milestones.
• Work with other designers on the UX team to evolve, improve, and maintain our design system to meet the needs of our customers.
• Participate in UX team crit sessions, sharing work in progress and providing feedback to other team members.
• Communicate, document, and present design direction to senior leadership, team members, and key stakeholders.
• After launching new products and features, collaborate with product managers, UX researchers, and analysts to track KPIs, identify customer issues, and rapidly iterate on solutions.

• Strong conceptual skills and proven ability to rapidly prototype and design to communicate ideas to others.
• Ability to tailor presentations and reviews to different audiences (working team, department heads, executive team)
• Highly fluent in the latest design tools such as Sketch, Invision, and Figma, and proficient at quickly learning new ones. 

Helpful, but not required:
