My primary focus is Leading product design efforts for multiple products within the “Send management” domain. I also support "Supply chain" design efforts. Report directly to VP, Head of Design.Highlights:▶︎ Led the design efforts to ship a fully revamped ”Send Management and Issue Resolution” experience.▶︎ I established the PD team’s critique process. I wrote the guidelines on format, providing effective feedback as well as created a system for signing up, and archiving the sessions. I facilitated a pilot program that grew into an ongoing practice. On a daily basis I:▶︎ Collaborate with a globally distributed team of product managers, engineers, researchers, AEs, Sr level product designers. ▶︎ Help steer our teams away from unnecessary work and focus on areas that add customer value. I also keep leadership in the loop on current progress as well as planning for future roadmap initiatives.▶︎ Provide design guidance and direction, regular QA, and reviews for designers working on different workstreams.▶︎ Organize and delegate work/ attend and contribute to Agile ceremonies and report on all things design.▶︎ Collect and create documentation that serves the Product Managers in building PRDs, TRDs, and product briefs.▶︎ Synthesize insights from research, engineering constraints, and business goals to solve core problems & capitalize on new product opportunities. Talking to customers along the way to gain insight into pain points and friction within the application.▶︎ Execute hands-on design — lo-fi wireframes, hi-fi mockups, and navigatable prototypes to gather stakeholder and customer feedback. (I rapidly iterated on each of these). Create documentation, user flows, journey diagrams, and set strategic direction.
