  • A true team player, someone who demands a collaborative approach in a cross functional environment
  • Bigger picture mentality what you'll be building may integrate into other product areas & teams
  • Strong UI skills. Whilst there will be discovery involved along the way, the core efforts will be designing #beautiful customer-facing experiences, and working closely with engineering peers in bringing them to life.
  • Solid communicator and the ability to lead conversations that drive ideas,presenting & communicating conceptual ideas, design rationale, and the design process within a cross-functional team.
