* Lead the design of AI-native experiences, including proactive, context-aware AI teammates, while establishing scalable interaction models for trust, transparency, and human-AI collaboration.

* Apply system-level thinking to create cohesive experiences across products and touchpoints, and drive reusable design patterns, frameworks, and quality standards that raise the UX bar.

* Leverage AI-accelerated workflows, rapid prototyping, and vibe coding to explore ideas, validate concepts, and influence product direction through tangible artifacts.

* Partner cross-functionally with product, engineering, and science to shape product strategy and roadmap, and influence senior stakeholders through strong storytelling and customer-backed insights.

* Drive customer understanding and validation through research, experimentation, and data, while mentoring other designers and elevating overall design quality and culture.
