• Translate the defined journey direction into clear flows, UI, and interaction patterns
• Use personas, behavioral data, and intent signals to shape experiences and guide users forward
• Identify friction, drop-offs, and gaps, and propose improvements within established frameworks
• Connect individual touchpoints into a cohesive, intuitive end-to-end experience
• Drive standardization of high-performing patterns across journeys (templates, flows, modules) to improve consistency and performance
• Identify and scale repeatable conversion patterns across the ecosystem

Support performance and optimization
• Design experiences that support engagement, conversion, and lead quality goals
• Partner with Product and Analytics to define success metrics and support experimentation through testable design variations
• Use qualitative and quantitative insights to iterate and improve outcomes
• Prioritize optimization opportunities based on impact and effort, in partnership with Product and Analytics

Apply and scale design systems across the ecosystem
• Apply and reinforce template and component systems, ensuring solutions align with established patterns and support scalability across the ecosystem
• Ensure consistency across marketing entry points and downstream experiences
• Design with strong understanding of content structure, SEO, and information architecture
• Inform and shape system evolution by identifying high-performing patterns and proposing them for reuse across journeys
• Design with a system-first mindset, prioritizing reusable patterns over one-off solutions

Deliver high-quality, production-ready work
• Ensure designs are implementation-ready and aligned with system standards
• Define UX requirements, interaction details, and edge cases to support build quality
• Partner with Product, Engineering, and Analytics to ensure accurate implementation

Execute within defined strategy and direction
• Translate high-level direction into actionable design work across multiple workstreams
• Manage multiple priorities and deliver high-quality work efficiently
• Identify gaps, risks, or dependencies and raise them early
• Communicate progress, tradeoffs, and updates clearly to stakeholders and design leadership
• Stay aligned with design leadership on priorities, direction, and standards
• Ensure experiences align to clear user intent (explore, evaluate, act) and contribute to a connected ecosystem, not isolated flows
• Own design decisions within the growth & conversion lane that align with system standards and experience principles; escalate only when cross-lane or system-level tradeoffs are required
