• Create scalable components that work across device types, considering the unique environments where our technology operates
• Engage in contextual research by visiting operational environments to gain firsthand understanding of user needs and processes
• Communicate design decisions effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, bringing them along in your process
• Collaborate with other designers across multiple verticals to maintain consistency and share best practices, working in the open to ensure cross-functional awareness

Who You Are

• Creative by default. Your work opens a world of possibilities for what we can build. You garner feedback with team members, walk in your users' shoes, and explore external trends to get your inspiration. You thrive in ideation and refine through iteration, and you lean on your instinct and experience to produce work that elicits an emotional response.
• Visual design expert. You have a deep understanding of visual design principles, including composition, color theory, typography, and Gestalt principles. You can create visually stunning and functional designs that enhance user experience and brand identity.
• Systems thinker. You think beyond the pixels and think holistically about the entire experience. You understand the immediate problem that needs solving at its core, but also can consider the extensibility of the solution elsewhere. You can make decisions on whether individual components should apply to a greater design system and champion the implementation of those components to other parts of the product.
• Storyteller. You are an effective communicator. You can tell a story through the lens of your users, and your mocks resonate because you understand them well. Your story has a beginning, middle, and end, taking your audience on a journey that engages their problems head on, welcomes feedback, all while showing the savvy of the solution.
