Responsibilities
- Drive the end-to-end visual execution of novel AI paradigms. Design beyond static screens, creating adaptive interfaces that accommodate non-deterministic, generative outputs.
- Define the visual cues and novel design patterns that communicate AI states. Craft the micro-interactions that build user trust—visually articulating how the browser behaves when it's "thinking," "reading a page," or "taking an action."
- Use core visual principles like typography, space, layout, and color to elevate the UX into a premium, magical experience that sets a new global standard.
- Guide cross-functional peers through design sprints, rapid prototyping, and critiques specifically tailored to the unique constraints and vast opportunities of GenAI.
- Present your designs to stakeholders with a strong articulation of design rationale. Collaborate with engineers to ensure your designs are implemented to specifications, sweating the details until the final product feels effortless.
