• Partner with product managers to ideate, define, and validate early-stage concepts for new features that deliver significant business value and exceptional user experiences.
• Conduct in-depth research by collecting, analyzing, and synthesizing product usage data, creating high-fidelity prototypes, and validating assumptions with usability studies to uncover insights that inform customer-focused, strategic design decisions.
