Lead with craft and clarity. Design intuitive, elegant user flows using modern design tools. Deliver thoughtful interaction models and polished visual design. Work closely with engineers and other stakeholders to ensure a high-quality implementation

Drive user-centered innovation. Conduct generative and evaluative research (including user interviews, usability testing, and behavioral analysis) to deeply understand member needs, behaviors, and pain points.

Uplevel the entire experience. Rethink navigation, benefit discovery, personalization, onboarding, and renewal flows using data and direct feedback from our members.

Build a design system. Standardize components, patterns, and guidelines across platforms while advocating for simplicity, accessibility, and scalability.

Prototype with the future in mind. Explore AI-driven interfaces, personalization strategies, and lightweight ML-enhanced tools to enrich the member experience.

Partner closely with product, engineering, and marketing. Collaborate on product strategy, growth experiments, and lifecycle initiatives. Be a key voice in defining our product roadmap.

Champion design culture. Lead critiques, mentor junior designers and UX writers, and foster cross-functional understanding of what great design can do.
