Qualifications

• 5–8 years of experience designing digital products in cross-functional environments.
• A strong portfolio of shipped work that demonstrates elegant problem‑solving across platforms.
• Proven ability to drive ambiguous projects from discovery to delivery.
• Experience working as an embedded designer partnered with product and engineering on a fast-moving technical roadmap.
• Deep expertise with Figma (components, prototyping, versioning) and other design tools.

• Fluency in design systems, accessibility standards, and responsive design.
• Strong product thinking and systems-level design mindset.
• Comfortable prototyping in code with AI-assisted tools — you can take a design from Figma to a working prototype engineers can react to, and you're fluent enough in the front end to understand what's feasible.

Responsibilities

• Own design execution for roadmap initiatives, from problem framing through shipped product, in partnership with product.
• Translate complex workflows and data into intuitive, elegant user experiences.
• Design for trust in AI-driven decisions — how users understand, verify, and act on agent recommendations, on desktop and in the field.
• Lead discovery efforts—synthesizing insights from users, data, and stakeholders.
• Create high-fidelity designs and prototypes that are both visually polished and functionally robust.
• Collaborate closely with engineering and PM to define product direction and ensure design feasibility.
• Conduct and lead user research, usability testing, and iterative validation.
