Why us?

Being a product designer in an empowered product team is not a purely design role. In addition to your typical designer duties, you are a part of the product manager/tech lead/product designer trifecta and you collaborate on product decisions. 
Collaborating on product as a product designer means you need to work together with your product manager and tech lead to discover and solve problems for your customers. 
You ensure, as partners, that the features you build are valuable (your customers will find them useful), feasible (you can build them), usable (your customers can use them) and viable (they work for your business). To do this successfully, you have to combine your unique expertise and collaborate closely in an environment of trust.
