Responsibilities
- Define and drive the design vision for Inbox and Notifications, improving today’s experience while shaping how users discover, prioritize, and act on information across in-product, mobile, email, and other surfaces.
- Design systems that handle high volumes of tasks, alerts, approvals, and updates while accounting for prioritization, permissions, deadlines, and diverse user needs.
- Establish the principles, interaction patterns, quality standards, and governance that help teams create consistent notifications while moving quickly and addressing domain-specific needs.

- Experience designing complex SaaS, enterprise, platform, productivity, or workflow products across multiple personas, permissions, states, and dependencies.
- Strong systems thinking, with the ability to connect functionality into coherent end-to-end journeys, anticipate second-order effects, and balance platform consistency with individual product needs.
- Excellent interaction and visual design craft, including the ability to produce polished work across edge cases and communicate clear, build-ready specifications.
- Relentless customer focus, backed by a habit of studying real behavior, identifying meaningful pain points, and using evidence to guide design decisions.
