- Ecosystem Design: Craft experiences beyond the app: widgets, voice, watch, iPad, notifications. Wherever, weather adds value to daily life.
- Data-Driven Design Decisions: Combine user insights, analytics, and experimentation to validate hypotheses and measure design impact.
- High-Fidelity Craft & Interaction Detail: Deliver polished, production-ready design specifications and motion interactions that elevate usability and delight.

- Experience building or contributing to a scalable Design System.
- Fluent in interpreting data to guide design decisions, comfortable with analytics, funnel data, and user behavior metrics.
- Experience designing for personalization, retention, and engagement.
- Bonus: familiarity with AI-powered recommendations or context-aware weather design.
- Discovery-driven and relentlessly curious.
- Systems thinker with strong sense for coherence across screens and devices.
- Exceptional English communicator who can connect design rationale to user and business outcomes.
- Fast, hands-on, and comfortable iterating in an experiment-driven environment.
