• You’re an inspiring leader, mentor, and coach with a growth mindset. You will guide and grow the design leaders within the team that reports to you, enabling them to scale and create value through the experiences they deliver with their teams and partners.

• You’re skilled at guiding results-driven, end-to-end design from strategy to execution. You know the ins-and-outs of what’s needed to design and deliver a great experience, and can set reasonable expectations and project timeframes with cross-functional leadership peers. You can effectively provide feedback to your team in how they frame problems, define insights, create compelling visions, design concepts and prototypes, and communicate their ideas. You have a critical eye for great UX, UI, visual, and content design, and can ensure your team delivers top-quality work.
