  • Experience working in and managing user experience design groups in large, product-based organizations; experience working in a complex environment, with a proven ability to consider the impact of their decisions, past their own products.
  • Fluency in best practices for User Research; practical knowledge of User Centered Design processes and lifecycles; ability to provide and effectively communicate strategic and tactical recommendations based on quantitative/qualitative data and optimal research practices.
