* You are a versatile designer who uses a full range of skills—product design, interaction design, and visual design — to ensure you deliver magical experiences to the customer.
* You’re a strong communicator. Who can inspire teams towards action and empathy for the user.
* You are a strong collaborator, who can work with not only design parterns, but many other stakeholders from marketing to engineering.
* You have a people-focused design mentality. Constantly looking to hone your design instinct through user feedback. Whether that’s hands-on user research or a quantitative A/B test.
