• Proficiency in Figma and collaborative design tools, able to move fluidly from rough concept to high-fidelity
• Fluency across the full design process, from research and problem definition through ideation, prototyping, validation, and iteration
• A portfolio of web and/or mobile work that shows not just what you made, but how you think, your process, your decisions, and the problems you solved

It’d be even cooler if you had:
