The role combines strategic thinking with deep execution, requiring strong product sense and a passion for building meaningful mobile experiences that improve real-world health outcomes.

Accountabilities

In this role, you will lead the end-to-end design of mobile product experiences, ensuring clarity, usability, and high-quality execution across the app:

• Lead product design across the full lifecycle, from problem definition and exploration to delivery and iteration.
• Shape solutions through design thinking, not just execution, actively contributing to product direction and discovery.
• Translate complex scientific and behavioral concepts into simple, intuitive, and engaging mobile experiences.
• Design native iOS and Android experiences with strong attention to platform conventions, interaction patterns, and usability.
• Create high-quality UI and interaction designs, including layout, typography, motion, and micro-interactions.
• Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and data teams to define problems, explore solutions, and deliver impact.
• Participate in design critiques and contribute to raising the overall quality bar across the team.
• Ensure design solutions are feasible, scalable, and aligned with technical constraints and business goals.

• Strong UI and interaction design skills, with attention to detail, hierarchy, and visual clarity.
• Ability to work from early-stage ambiguity through to final execution and delivery.
• Strong understanding of mobile design systems, platform guidelines, and interaction patterns.
• Experience using design as a problem-solving tool, not just a delivery function.
• Ability to think in systems, flows, and behaviors rather than isolated screens.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to articulate design decisions clearly.
• Comfortable working in cross-functional squads with product and engineering partners.
• Pragmatic, low-ego mindset with strong ownership and follow-through.
• Ability to balance user needs, technical constraints, and business objectives effectively.
