  • equivalent experience (e.g., demonstrated experience working in product or service design or using design thinking to solve problems)
  • AI-Forward Mindset
  • Creative Technologist DNA
  • Collaborative Leadership
  • Strategic Vision

Nice to have:

  • Portfolio includes AI behavior work, model shaping exercises, prototypes that show orchestration, tool use, or agent behavior beyond UI

  • Experience working with ambiguity in AI systems, including partial answers, uncertainty handling, or graceful fallbacks
  • Deep experience designing for AI/LLM-powered experiences
  • technical background and familiarity with conversational and voice systems
  • Proficiency in Figma and AI prototyping tools
