• Support insight-driven decisions, working closely with research and analytics partners.
• Raise the bar for design quality, through reviews, feedback, and shared standards.
• Mentor and sponsor designers, helping them grow in confidence, skill, and scope.
• Improve how teams work together, so collaboration is smoother and outcomes are stronger.

Qualifications

Design craft and systems thinking

• Deep experience in product/platform design, including complex workflows and connected experiences.
• Experience contributing to design systems, such as pattern frameworks, shared components, and governance guidelines.
• Ability to balance consistency with experimentation, and to explain the tradeoffs.
• Strong skills in storytelling and prototyping to make ideas concrete for others.

Customer, market, and data insight

• Strong customer empathy and curiosity about how people handle and think about money.
• Experience working with research and data teams to understand behavior and needs.
• Ability to combine qualitative and quantitative insights to guide design decisions.

Business awareness and strategic thinking

• Strong feedback skills and commitment to a healthy, open feedback culture.

Coaching, mentoring, and design leadership

• Experience coaching other designers, including seniors and design leaders.
• Interest in helping others grow their influence, not just their craft.
• Comfort leading large, complex efforts that span multiple teams and locations.
• Participation in the broader design community through sharing work, talks, or writing is a plus.
