UX Design Candidate Requirement

• Target candidate: UX Designer with 5-7 years of experience, with a strong portfolio demonstrating polished visual and interaction design work
• Core expectation:
  Ability to partner directly with business units and internal customers to understand needs, clarify requirements, and translate them into intuitive user experiences and design solution
• What to prioritize:

• Core tools:
  Advanced proficiency in Figma and/or Axure
• Industry/product context:
  Experience designing for internal enterprise tools, complex workflows, or operational environments is highly relevant. Utility or other regulated-industry experience is a plus but not required

• Key traits to screen for:
  Empathy, collaboration, initiative, and the ability to communicate design rationale clearly and iterate designs based on feedback

  Candidates who show strong visual craft, examples of turning feedback into refined design work, and evidence of proactively driving design work from concept to delivery
