• Designing digital experiences and workflows in B2B products with an emphasis for the web

What You'll Be Doing:

• Partnering with Product Managers exploring design solutions, creating prototypes, and highly detailed UI specifications that engineers refer to during implementation

• Develop and execute research plans, summarize findings, and make recommendations based on that input

• Using AI to assist your design efforts

• Partnering with Engineering teams to keep them informed of what they'll be working on, understand their concerns and limitations, soliciting feedback and ideas for future iterations, and reviewing the implementation of design work to ensure it's completed as expected

• Contributing to team initiatives to improve the quality of life for yourself and other designers (design system, process improvements, educating designers or other teams on design related topics, etc.)

• Owning large feature projects from start to finish and assisting with other projects as-needed
