About the Team

Designers on the Presence team work at the intersection of craft and impact, balancing clarity, polish, systems thinking, strategic storytelling, and experimentation. They collaborate closely with engineering, marketing, content, and product to deliver work that is beautiful and measurably moves the business.

- Lead cross-functional collaboration with engineering, product marketing, content design, brand, and product teams.
- Partner deeply with engineering throughout the design process, from exploring technical possibilities and constraints to co-creating solutions and ensuring design intent carries through to implementation.
- Develop and advance design systems, patterns, and components that are extensible and maintainable at scale.
- Apply and evolve visual and interaction standards across diverse surfaces, including immersive event experiences and conversion-focused product pages.
- Use research insights, user testing, and performance data to inform decisions and advocate for users.
- Contribute to team quality through expertise sharing, critique, and raising the standard of work across the Presence team.
