Define and Plan: Translate design concepts into robust, accessible experiences that work across multiple platforms.
Design Quality: Bridge the gap and collaborate with product, design, and engineering to build high-quality, scalable, and interactive components.
Prototyping: Research and develop prototypes/proof-of-concepts to validate and refine design ideas and interactions.
Collaboration: Seek out opportunities to connect with people and teams working on related projects.
Foster meaningful relationships with product, engineering, and other cross-functional partners.
Shaping: Defining great products and developer experiences with a point of view, where good defaults and what not to include is as intentional as essential as what makes it into the final solution.
Systems thinking: This role requires a person who can think systematically when it comes to information architecture as well as existing and emerging UI patterns.
Progress and tempo: it’s easy to get caught up in the meta-design details, so our team must be mindful that we keep making decisions and move forward quickly. We prioritize progress over correctness.
Curiosity: In a fast-paced environment like AI and LLMs, our designers remain curious and comfortable learning about existing and upcoming new capabilities to identify opportunities.
