* B2B / enterprise product design experience, particularly designing for teachers, school districts, or institutional users
* Solid understanding of typography, layout, hierarchy, and interaction design
* Attention to the details: styling inputs, error handling, hover states, responsive behavior
* Experience with Figma and using AI-assisted design tools (e.g., Figma Make, Cursor, Claude Code)
* Strong communication skills - written and verbal, in a remote, distributed team
* You "get" chess without needing to be an expert
