• Run projects end to end with engineers to drive your vision to the ship line

• Create new patterns that are intuitive, practical, and convergent
• Evolve our design system intentionally as we scale

Requirements

• Enjoy untangling vague conceptual problems and have a sharp intuition for the most accessible mental models and flows
• Create clear, intuitive, and visually appealing human interfaces
• Care about business needs, implications, and practicality of your designs
• Don't get stuck on pretty UI or deep abstractions and can balance between craft, speed, and the bottom line
