Required Qualifications

  • 7+ years of experience in product design and/or design engineering roles, including 2+ years in senior-level design positions at significant global consumer brands.
  • Ability to communicate visual and interaction recommendations with high-quality mockups, prototypes, and rationale.
  • Comfortable partnering with engineers as a peer, reasoning about your decisions in PR reviews and contributing code where it's the fastest route to the right result.
  • Experience defining requirements and developing tools that help accelerate both design and engineering workflows, and retain both quality and consistency of our design system across design and code.
  • An ability to prototype in code to a production standard, with an understanding of semantic markup and accessibility, leveraging but not relying on AI tooling.
  • Fluency in motion and interaction as implemented behaviour, not just specified intent; easing curves, spring physics, and interruptible transitions that hold up under real conditions.
  • Experience structuring a design system beyond component inventory; token layering, primitive versus semantic naming, and holding parity between design source and code.
  • Proficiency in managing projects of varying complexity, from proposal, through execution and release, all while working transparently and collaborating with cross-functional stakeholders and contributors.
  • Accustomed to applying agentic solutions into everyday project management and design execution workflows to both accelerate and raise the quality of your work.
  • Ability to write creative briefs that clearly define and communicate project goals, rationale, and success metrics with stakeholders.
  • Proficiency in research and experimentation. You can leverage both qualitative and quantitative data in driving decisions forward, and are comfortable instrumenting your own work so measurement isn't a hand-off.
  • Ability to take initiative in generating ideas and carrying them forward with urgency and discretion, while working openly and collaboratively.
