- Rapidly prototype and validate ideas through A/B testing, guerilla testing, and in-market experiments.

- Contribute to and evolve our design system, ensuring visual and interaction consistency.
- Work closely with engineers to ensure pixel-perfect implementation and technical feasibility.
Collaboration & Influence

- Present work clearly and persuasively to stakeholders, always grounding decisions in research and data.
- Support the development of junior designers, contributing to the overall quality of the team.
Skills and Experience

- Solid knowledge of user research techniques (moderated/unmoderated testing, surveys, analytics interpretation).
- Proficiency with modern design tools (Figma, Sketch, prototyping tools) and research platforms.
- Strong visual design skills paired with a rigorous UX process.
- Experience in regulated industries or security-conscious environments a plus.
Success in This Role Means
