• Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
• Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools into design workflows to drive measurable improvements in efficiency, quality, or the scope of design output
• Experience navigating highly ambiguous product spaces where fundamental design principles are not fully established, developing novel approaches that align with broader organizational goals
• Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies
