• Work autonomously, moving from a blank problem to a concrete direction without waiting for detailed instructions.
• Join workshops and exploratory sessions that shape design direction and inform product strategy across new business initiatives.
• Work closely with editorial, product, engineering, research, and growth experts to turn competing inputs and business goals into a strong, customer-focused product.
• Understand the limits of the mobile platform and the business, and know when to push against convention to reimagine what is possible for users.

Requirements

• 8+ years as a cross-platform product designer, including at least 4 years on native mobile experiences.
• Mastery of Figma and prototyping.
• Impeccable visual and interaction design skills.
• Expertise in creating and changing components within a mature design system kit.
• Experience building and maintaining design systems or component libraries.

• Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
• Experience with program management tools such as Confluence and Jira.
• Bachelor's degree in design, human-computer interaction (HCI), or equivalent professional experience.
