Deliver high-fidelity designs that effectively illustrate user flows and interactions, with a focus on improving user engagement and retention to support monetization strategies.
• User Research and Continuous Improvement: Conduct user research and usability testing to gather insights and feedback for continuous improvement, ensuring that design solutions are aligned with user needs and business objectives.
• Problem-Solving and Action Orientation: Identify opportunities to simplify complex problems, create actionable plans, and implement solutions, even in ambiguous circumstances, while considering how these solutions can contribute to our business.
• Communication and Influence: Combine strong communication skills with a user-centered perspective to influence and persuade stakeholders, emphasizing the value of design.
• Data-driven Decision Making: Analyze user data and feedback to inform design decisions and identify opportunities for improvement and growth.
