<li>Ability to translate complex problems and flows into intuitive, purposeful designs that help users achieve their goals.</li>

<li>Equal strength in designing for user flow and human interaction as well as delivering visual polish.</li>

<li>Understanding that the way an app makes you feel is equally important as what the app does.</li>

<li>Experience defining and expanding design systems, components, and patterns.</li>

<li>Expertise in Figma and well-versed in compatible plugins to support asset interoperability, accessibility, and design throughput.</li>

<li>Comfortable working in close collaboration with product managers, engineers, and customer advisories.</li>
