- Comfort with tools such as Cursor, v0, Replit, or equivalent tools
- Active use of AI tools in daily design workflows, including LLMs for framing and brief development, generative tools for exploration, and AI-assisted prototyping for iteration
- A track record of influencing product and engineering requirements upstream, with product and engineering leadership viewing you as a credible design voice rather than a downstream dependency
