- Experience building or significantly evolving a design system or component library at a product company
- A strong eye for visual and interaction design and a portfolio to show it
- Comfort building on a CMS (Sanity preferred), running web experiments, and managing web analytics
- Track record of moving quickly, finding shortcuts, and going to unreasonable lengths to deliver on goals
