- Practical design systems experience that shows strong ownership of or significant contribution to an existing design system that impacts millions of customers
- Examples of design and development advocacy that led to breakthrough adoption of design system tools, processes, or artifacts
- Highly collaborative team spirit able to take in multiple points of view, synthesize decisions, and communicate outcomes across the organization
- Artistry and excellence in simplifying complex ideas, identifying risks and dependencies, and delivering for customers within the constraints of technology
- Confidence in managing through ambiguity with a track record of creative problem-solving that demonstrates flexibility
- A love for technology and an insatiable curiosity for new tools to solve real problems

**How you will lead**:

- Identify opportunities for existing IDS assets to accelerate business outcomes across the organization and develop partnerships that influence IDS' strategic direction.
- Exhibit the ability to influence others’ thinking, gain alignment through shared understanding, empathize with and accept critical feedback, and persistently return to the collaboration table to solve systemic challenges for our customers' benefit.
- Lead the visual and technical direction of our foundational design tokens including experience design, visual style, and technical tooling.
- Extend the design system language to influence the company’s ability to design for emotion at scale, utilizing industry knowledge, customer insights, and trend analysis to develop innovative experiences that challenge and delight customers.
- Surface opportunities to enhance processes, deliverables, and customer experience while balancing long-term considerations with the design system's continuous shipping, iteration, and evolution.
- Mentor other designers with systems thinking adjacencies inside Intuit to extend design craft authority and represent Intuit externally through conferences, blog posts, or other channels.
- Collaborate with brand and product/marketing design teams on business requirements, implement design system elements, identify gaps, and champion end-to-end design opportunities for better customer outcomes.
- Expertly create and maintain Figma variables and libraries, focusing on syncing design and code to improve design tools that manage and document components, themes, and tokens.
- Offer support and guidance to teams implementing the Intuit Design System via Slack, office hours, and status updates.
