Workflow & Architecture Consolidation: Map out and synthesize hundreds of brand-building jobs-to-be-done (JTBD) across 30 legacy tools into a unified Information Architecture (IA) and intuitive agentic user flows.
Rapid Prototyping & Technical Translation: Build high-fidelity, functional prototypes in tools like Claude, v0, or similar code-adjacent frameworks that translate directly to engineering teams.
Design System Contribution: Support the audit of a legacy design system and help define updated component libraries and interaction patterns tailored for agentic AI workflows.
User Testing & Validation: Set up, run, and analyze rapid usability testing via Maze to validate complex workflows and iterate quickly ahead of executive milestones.
Stakeholder Collaboration & Facilitation: Work closely with product, engineering, and business teams to align on priorities, facilitate design reviews, and communicate progress clearly — acting as a connective thread across disciplines.
Agentic UX Expertise: Proven experience designing complex software, SaaS platforms, or agentic/AI-driven workflow environments.
Rapid AI Prototyping: Proficiency building interactive screens using code-generating rapid prototyping tools (Claude, v0, Anima, or code-based Figma workflows) to bridge design and development seamlessly.
Information Architecture & User Flows: Mastery in taking highly fragmented multi-tool systems and mapping them into streamlined, scalable platform architectures.
Design Systems: Familiarity with design systems and a basic understanding of how they can be adapted to support evolving interaction paradigms (chat, autonomy, canvas, mixed-modality) — deep expertise not required.
Usability Testing: Hands-on experience with quantitative/qualitative user research platforms like Maze.
Consulting & Communication: Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, client-facing environment. You know how to read a room, manage stakeholder expectations, and present design rationale with clarity and confidence.
