• Be a daily user of the Lore app to develop intuition for how it can change lives for our users
• Collaborate with the design team, software engineers, and other stakeholders to ensure the best user experience
• Work with a Figma asset library to ensure brand consistency across all designs
• Iterate quickly on designs based on user feedback and data
• Advocate for the end user in all stages of the design process
• Stay up-to-date with the latest UX/UI trends, techniques, and technologies

• AI Curiosity: Actively exploring or interested in using AI tools to improve design quality, speed, or collaboration (experience with tools like Cursor is a plus)
• Research and Testing: Experience conducting user research, usability testing, and A/B testing

• Collaboration: Excellent communication and collaboration skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams
