Your position in our team

• Drive the evolution of our Design System, defining structure, documentation, and governance in collaboration with designers and engineers.
• Establish scalable design workflows — including QA standards, handoff procedures, and feedback rituals — that raise the quality bar across squads.
• Mentor and support other designers, helping them grow in craft, process ownership, and data-informed thinking.
• Promote collaboration and alignment by facilitating workshops, design reviews, and cross-functional discussions.
• Integrate AI and emerging technologies into design workflows to accelerate ideation, prototyping, and system evolution.
