  • Run rapid user research (interviews, usability tests, telemetry reads) and turn insights into iterations.
  • Apply design thinking to simplify complex, multi-step workflows into elegant, learnable experiences.
  • Build high-fidelity prototypes (Figma; bonus if you can prototype in code, e.g. React/TypeScript, SwiftUI) to validate behavior and performance.
  • Establish design systems (tokens, components, motion) that scale across desktop apps and web surfaces.

  • BA/BS in Design, HCI, or related field (or equivalent experience).
  • Strong portfolio showcasing shipped product work and systems thinking (please include case studies).
