  • Strong visual storytelling skills and attention to layout, hierarchy, and interaction patterns
  • Ability to balance aesthetics and usability, ensuring interfaces are both beautiful and functional
  • Strong understanding of qualitative and quantitative research methods, with the ability to synthesize insights into actionable design decisions
