• Expertise with modern design tools like Figma and familiarity with design systems and component libraries.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to articulate design decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• A collaborative mindset—you thrive in environments where designers, engineers, and product managers work side by side.
