• Ensure visual, interaction, and accessibility consistency across all platforms

• Partner closely with engineering and product teams to ensure smooth implementation

• Create and maintain interactive prototypes to validate system components and flows

• Ability to communicate design decisions clearly and influence cross-functional teams

• Experience working closely with developers and understanding technical constraints

• Understanding of HTML/CSS and web standards

• Fluent with modern AI tools for design and prototyping (prompting, iteration, critique, generation)

• Able to quickly vibecode small UI components and interactive prototypes to test ideas and clarify system behavior (not production engineering, but strong prototyping)

• Fluency in English (B2 and above) and Russian
