• Owning the UX and UI vision for our internal developer portal, ensuring consistency, clarity and usability across tools and services

• Delivering end-to-end design artefacts, including journey maps, information architecture, wireframes, asset libraries and high-fidelity prototypes

• Facilitating collaborative design processes, including cross-team workshops, design reviews and embedding UX thinking in engineering rituals and platform roadmap

• Championing a developer-first approach, gathering feedback, testing ideas and iterating to continuously improve usability and impact

• Experience leading projects and influencing cross-functional stakeholders

• Passionate about improving the developer experience and building internal tools that engineers love to use
