• Experience working in a fast-paced, iterative environment across cross-functional teams.
• High proficiency with accessibility standards, usability principles, and designing for inclusion (WCAG).

• Expert-level mastery of Figma and familiarity with user research tools like Maze, UserTesting or similar platforms.
• A genuine curiosity about AI, emerging patterns, and designing for systems that adapt, learn, and evolve.
