• A solid understanding of UX/UI and creating a great (app) experience to drive product growth.

• Design and run experiments to validate ideas fast.
• Work hand-in-hand with Growth & Marketing to align product initiatives with acquisition and retention goals, no silos, just shared wins.
• Translate messy, complex problems into small, testable stories, making outcomes clear for everyone on the team.
• Celebrate the small wins as much as the big ones. Incremental progress is still progress.
