• Strong systems thinking skills, with the ability to structure multi-layered flows with roles, states, and dynamic logic.
• Experience collaborating with product managers and engineers to drive product outcomes and influence strategic priorities.
• Mastery of interaction and visual design, with a portfolio that demonstrates elegant handling of highly complex interfaces.
• A research-driven mindset, grounded in user research, usability testing, and data-informed decision making.
• Technical fluency, with the ability to collaborate confidently with engineers and product managers.
• Strong communication and storytelling skills, with the ability to align and inspire cross-functional teams and leadership.

NICE TO HAVE:

• Demonstrated experience creating human-AI interaction models that balance usability, transparency, and trust.

• Background or interest in conversational interfaces, automation tooling, or multimodal interaction design.
• Familiarity with design systems in a scaling team.
• Knowledge of voice technologies or telephony ecosystems.
