Responsibilities (12)

  • Navigate ambiguity and shape solutions
  • Work directly with clients, product owners, and stakeholders to uncover the real problem beneath the stated one
  • Cut through noise and competing priorities to define the “just right” solution — not the over-engineered ideal, not the quick fix, but the pragmatic path that ships and scales
  • Frame product strategy as POC → Pilot → Phased Rollout, helping clients see the big vision while grounding them in what’s achievable now
  • Build rapidly with AI-assisted tooling
  • Use AI-assisted prototyping tools (Claude Code, Cursor, v0, or your weapon of choice) to vibe code functional prototypes that go far beyond static mockups
  • Generate interactive experiences that stakeholders can touch and react to — not just screens to squint at
  • Leverage AI to accelerate research synthesis, turning interview transcripts and messy data into actionable personas, journeys, and opportunity maps
  • Design skills in Figma
  • Knowledge of how to leverage and manage a design system
  • Ability to facilitate research sessions with end users and act on feedback
  • Willingness to learn new AI tooling to help speed up the design and development collaboration process
