  • Additionally, I regularly communicated with product managers and stakeholders to ensure that our designs aligned with business requirements. I worked closely with engineers to refine design details and enhance the user experience. I also collaborated with the marketing and growth team to analyze the performance of our ad campaigns. In order to maintain the quality of our product, I met regularly with the QA team to discuss bug fixes without compromising user experience.

  • Furthermore, I communicated with the CX team to address user queries and resolve any issues with our product's flow. I valued data and analytics, so I frequently analyzed user behavior data to identify areas where we could improve our designs and user experience.
