This opportunity is ideal for professionals who excel at explaining the 'why' behind their design and technical decisions, and who are passionate about producing thorough, thoughtful written deliverables. Rather than execution, your primary contributions will be analytical and explanatory, focusing on trade-offs, constraints, user impact, and communicating complex concepts to varied audiences.

Evaluate and write about design systems (especially Figma workflows), accessibility considerations, and frontend architecture trade-offs.

-
Produce detailed reports on user research findings, including insights and actionable recommendations.

-
Critically assess design and engineering approaches, documenting pros, cons, and strategic implications.

-
Participate in structured reviews to provide expert commentary and feedback on submitted project artifacts.

Preferred Qualifications:

-
Minimum 3 years of professional experience in product design, UX, UI/visual design, or frontend engineering (JavaScript/TypeScript, React or comparable frameworks).

-
Demonstrated expertise in producing high-quality written deliverables (design docs, case studies, design system documentation, usability reports, RFCs/ADRs).
