　　What We’re Looking For

　　Systems Thinker: You have a knack for stepping back and looking beyond the immediate problem to see how it fits into the larger ecosystem – across channels, touchpoints, and platforms – and then diving in to nail the important details.

　　Intrapreneur: You’ll think about the team, the product, and the customer as parts of your own business; it needs a purpose – whether to solve a problem, entertain, educate, or delight – and you’ll measure its performance against these goals. You don’t wait for the next order to be issued. You seek opportunities and build the case for where the team needs to move next in order to bring the greatest impact.

　　Data-Driven: You are clear in articulation of intent and goals, and you know how to use data and research to back up your work. You’ll seek out analytics and user testing data to help you make design decisions, support your design decisions, and iterate on your past design decisions – all so we constantly get better at getting better.

　　Facilitator: You are at your best when leading stakeholders and partners through brainstorming sessions, workshopping solutions in a truly collaborative fashion.

　　Detail Oriented: You impress your teammates with the ability to pick out small nuances that no one else seems to notice. You’re proud that your production files are always pixel perfect and you’ve thought through every permutation of your designs, making the development process smooth sailing.

　　Flexible: You know that projects can adjust at the drop of a hat, you are adaptable and welcome change.
