• Strong aesthetic skills to help elevate the visual identity of our brands.
• A curiosity to continuously evolve your design process by leveraging AI tools to deliver better, more user-centered products.

• An acute level of self-awareness and deep empathy - for both the customer and your team’s goals.
• A deep curiosity and ability to consider product strategy and vision. You don’t just care about “how it looks,” or “what we should design,” but “why are we designing this at all?”
