- A strong eye for typography, color, layout, and motion, with the ability to articulate why each decision serves the user and the product
- Experience designing consumer-facing mobile and web products , comfort moving fluidly across fidelity levels without losing quality at any stage
- A demonstrated design systems contributor – someone who thinks in reusable patterns and has added meaningfully to a shared component library
- Proficiency in Figma, strong prototyping instincts, especially for interaction and motion concepts that are hard to communicate statically
- The ability to build cross-functional buy-in using evidence and clear rationale – not just preference or aesthetics
