• Bring designs to life at different levels of fidelity through prototyping software (primarily Figma) 

• Work confidently within an established central design system, creatively using components to figure out the right balance of content and UI (User Interface) elements on screen 

• Be adaptable to the technical constraints of different platforms yet still be able to give guidance on creating the best possible end user experience

• Continually iterate & improve designs and experiences based on regular performance data and feedback from customers using the app

• Proven digital design experience (preferably mobile app design experience) 

• Strong Figma skills
