Look across the product for opportunities to improve consistency, usability, and overall quality.
Get into the code with engineers to polish UI and make sure the shipped experience matches the design.
Help shape how the design team works and raise the bar for product quality across the company.
REQUIREMENTS

Experience working directly with engineers and customers, without layers of process in between.
A fast, prototype-early working style that uses what you learn to iterate.
