• Effectively communicate research findings, conceptual ideas, detailed design, and design rationale both verbally and visually.
• Manage the design process, drive decisions, track issues, and assist in estimating resource needs and schedules.
• Work closely with development teams to ensure that design specifications are implemented.
• Participate as a contributor to an interdisciplinary team that includes other designers, project management, business and brand strategists, and hardware and software developers.
Requirements:
• At least five years of user interface design experience.
