Responsibilities
- Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders to define product requirements and design goals.

- Stay up-to-date with industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in product design.
Requirements
- Proven experience (8 years) as a product designer, interaction designer, or similar role in a software development environment.
- Strong portfolio showcasing a range of design projects, with an emphasis on digital products and interfaces.
- Strong proficiency in design tools such as Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, or similar software.
