Desired Skills and Experiences

• 8+ Years in Product Design: A track record designing enterprise/B2B SaaS, AI-centric products, or complex workflows is required.

• Proven Leadership: Prior experience leading or coaching design teams.

• Strong Portfolio: Demonstrated user-centric design thinking, polished UI craftsmanship, and innovative interaction paradigms.

• User Research Expertise: Hands-on experience with interviews, usability testing, and synthesizing insights into actionable design requirements.

• Technical Prototyping Skills: Ability to rapidly prototype in code (HTML/CSS/JS) or other tools to communicate concepts and validate ideas.

• Excellent Communication: Ability to present design decisions clearly, collaborate effectively with cross-functional partners, and can influence without direct authority.

• Comfortable with Ambiguity: High-growth startups move fast. You excel at clarifying direction amidst shifting priorities and thrive in dynamic environments.

• Collaborative and Communicative: You value teaching as much as learning, and you articulate design rationale effectively across the organization. You listen closely to feedback and use it to inform better outcomes.
