Responsibilities

• Portfolio: Shows end-to-end ownership of complex product work, clear articulation of problem framing, process and decision-making, and measurable outcomes or learnings.
• Tools: Proficiency with modern product design tools, working in shared design systems. Proficient in leveraging AI tools (e.g., Claude Code or Figma Make).
