• Design coherent and qualitative visual interfaces (colours, typography, icons, layout, navigation)
• Create interactive prototypes for user testing and demonstrations.
• Collaborate closely with UX, Product Designers and developers to ensure a production that is faithful to the design (pair design, UI reviews, recipe).
• Maintain and evolve the Design System (creation of components, documentation, support, QA), guaranteeing its consistency across several products.
• Maintain and evolve the V1 Design Kit still used by product teams
• Build scalable Figma components, leveraging the latest features.
• Design icons and logotypes
• Use AI tools to speed up workflows (documentation, prototyping)
