About the role

  • Lead the design of end-to-end product experiences, from early concept through to polished execution and iteration
  • Partner with PMs, engineers, and subject matter experts to shape feature direction and design decisions
  • Align on discovery efforts, contribute to research plans, run interviews, and translate insights into opportunities
  • Prototype and test ideas with the right level of fidelity for each stage of the process
  • Improve core user flows by simplifying complexity and enhancing clarity and usability
