WHO YOU ARE:

As a Senior Interaction Designer, you bring expertise, strategic thinking, and command of your craft to every project you touch. With 5+ years of experience, you’ve led complex design initiatives across digital platforms, translating ambiguity into elegant, intuitive user experiences. You approach challenges holistically—balancing user needs, business goals, and technical feasibility—while guiding cross-functional teams through the design process. 

 

You’re fluent in design thinking, user experience, interface design, and storytelling, and you can confidently communicate your rationale to clients, stakeholders, and teammates. You lead with clarity, confidence, and empathy, whether facilitating a workshop, conducting research, or mapping a user journey. You can do this process in 3 weeks or 3 months - with confidence and security that you are putting out great work. 

 

You thrive in collaborative environments, effectively articulating design as a solution to real-world problems—even for non-design contributors. Your systems thinking enables you to scale design solutions and influence roadmaps, while your attention to detail ensures that every interaction is thoughtful and purposeful. Proficient in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, you understand how design intersects with development, research, and strategy. You stay ahead of industry trends and continuously push the work further. 

 

Most importantly, you take ownership—not just as a designer but as a key contributor to our studio’s culture, processes, and future.
