  • Deep passion and conviction for excellence in design, paired with enthusiasm and openness to feedback and critique. You balance functional execution with bold, creative ideas, eager to push boundaries and take creative risks.

  • A team-first mindset with an eagerness to collaborate with a growing design team; skill in communicating to designers and non-designers alike. You’re able to effectively articulate your design decisions and what problems you’re solving

  • Mastery of Figma and modern design tools; comfort working with design tokens, components, and systematic approaches

  • Solid understanding of UX principles and ability to work from wireframes, user flows, or conceptual direction

  • Experience in early-stage or fast-moving product teams preferred

  • Animation and/or motion design skills are a strong plus

  • Prototyping and user testing experience is a plus
