What's On Your Plate

• Develop deep domain knowledge of your squad's product area and team up with your manager to solve the toughest problems.

• Use a variety of metrics to evaluate and continuously improve the user experience.
• Continuously improve design processes, knowledge, and tools to enhance productivity and product quality.
• Proactively drive cooperation within the design chapter and foster collaboration with other departments.
• Regularly present your work to peers, stakeholders, and leaders for review and feedback.
• Contribute to a creative, supportive culture and mentor junior team members.

Qualifications

• Preferably a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts, Design, Marketing, Graphic Design, or Visual Communication.
• Proficiency in multimedia graphics.
• Minimum 5-6 years of full-time UX & UI design experience in an agile, consumer-focused, high-performance organization.

• Minimum 2-3 years of experience interacting with users.
• Experience in organizing workshops/sessions with different stakeholders.
• Advanced knowledge of design and prototyping tools such as Sketch, InVision, Zeplin, etc.
• An outstanding portfolio showcasing your thought process and an advanced understanding of user experience.
• A track record of shipping top-notch designs and understanding the details that matter at each stage of the release cycle.
• Knowledge of validating hypotheses through qualitative and quantitative data.
• Deep thinker and natural communicator who clearly articulates design decisions and tells compelling stories that inspire action.
