Description
The ideal candidate is an independent, technically proficient designer who can own a broad, fast-moving workspace with minimal oversight, determining how to approach ambiguous problems and driving them to resolution across teams.Partnering closely with product designers, producers, and engineering leads, you'll catch changes early and keep implementation documented and intentional rather than ad hoc, while translating design intent, including custom and one-off requests, into precise, engineering-ready specifications.This is a role focused on being the source of truth for visual specifications as our apps evolve: producing detailed design deliverables for engineering, covering spacing, sizing, type tokens, materials, assets, variants and more, while maintaining and expanding our design system's libraries and upholding consistency across platforms with rigor and discernment. You'll also manage your own queue of competing priorities, negotiating scope and timeline tradeoffs as needed. Keen attention to detail and strong organizational skills are a must, along with the ability to navigate rapid change and ambiguity.You are a clear, direct communicator who proactively surfaces problems and drives solutions across teams. As our scope grows, you'll also help set the bar for quality across the team, coaching less experienced designers where it's useful.
