• Bachelor’s degree in Interaction Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Industrial Design, or equivalent practical experience.
• Exceptional interpersonal, collaborative, and communication skills.
• Strong understanding of design processes; knowledge of what is possible and what will be hard to achieve and / or implement in a digital environment.
• Expertise in producing design deliverables, including detailed user flows / task flows, user journeys, page flows, taxonomies / folksonomies, wireframes, annotations, and prototypes that represent interaction recommendations, etc..
• Strong skills in modern design tools like Figma.
• Working knowledge of HTML / CSS / JS enough to understand feasibility of execution.
• The ability to think at systems level and design solutions that are scalable and extensible beyond the immediate use.
• Experience presenting and defending designs to senior and executive leadership.
• Portfolio and / or case studies of shipped work that demonstrates an ability to effectively design for highly technical experiences, unfailing advocacy for the user, data-driven approach, and strategic thinking.
