• Clarify requirements and scope with partners, then use post-launch data to identify improvements.
• Participate across discovery, exploration, validation, delivery, design QA, and post-launch evaluation.
• Explore multiple approaches, explain key decisions, and independently manage assigned work while communicating risks and dependencies.
• Use approved AI tools for tasks such as research synthesis, ideation, rapid prototyping, documentation, and quality review, while validating AI-assisted work for accuracy, accessibility, brand alignment, bias, and technical feasibility.
• Support implementation with organized files, clear specifications, developer walkthroughs, and design QA.
• Maintain ownership of final decisions, verify AI-generated work, and follow company requirements for privacy, security, intellectual property, and responsible AI use.
• Communicate assumptions, tradeoffs, risks, next steps, and keep partners aligned throughout the project lifecycle.
• Provide thoughtful, direct, respectful feedback during critiques and project reviews, and support less-experienced designers through constructive guidance.
