• A track record of independently driving design processes from discovery through launch—balancing user needs, technical constraints, and business goals
• The ability to guide decision-making with structured thinking, clearly articulated rationale, and user-centered research
• A knack for figuring out ambiguous problems in complex systems, and shaping them into simple solutions with clear goals
• Experience researching, prototyping, or building products with AI and other emerging tools to uncover new patterns for creativity and collaboration

Qualifications
