    Your role in the team

    • Design and ship product experiences from early concepts through to polished production interfaces.
    • Work directly in the front-end codebase through pull requests, code reviews, testing, and release.
    • Partner early with Product Design and Product Engineering to shape elegant, feasible solutions.
    • Build functional prototypes that make complex ideas tangible and help the team test assumptions quickly.
    • Define interaction patterns for AI agents, legal documents, citations, generated content, and multi-step workflows.

    • Translate design intent into reusable, responsive, and accessible components and product patterns.
    • Build accessibility into the product from the start, applying WCAG standards across interaction, navigation, content, and implementation.

    • Use customer feedback, research, analytics, and session replays to identify and improve critical product experiences.
    • Raise the quality bar across typography, spacing, motion, microcopy, loading states, empty states, and edge cases.
    • Operate with autonomy in a fast-moving environment where many AI interaction patterns are still being invented.
