• End-to-end product design experience with a strong emphasis on UI craftsmanship
• Exceptional attention to detail and comfort conducting design QA and implementation reviews
• Experience collaborating closely with engineering teams during handoff and build phases
• Ability to work independently, make decisions, and solve problems with minimal oversight

Nice to Have

• Experience working with CMS platforms
• Background contributing to design system documentation or guideline portals
• Familiarity with AI-assisted design workflows to accelerate production and ideation

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Systems-oriented designer who values consistency, scalability, and usability
• Strong visual storyteller with a refined sense of hierarchy and clarity
• Comfortable working at speed in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment
• Able to balance big-picture thinking with meticulous execution
• Proactive, self-directed, and confident operating in ambiguous or evolving requirements

Work Environment

• Highly collaborative and fast-paced, with a strong emphasis on execution and delivery
• Close partnership with design leadership and engineering teams
• Ongoing milestone releases with continuous iteration and improvement
• Alignment with Eastern Time (EST) working hours preferred
