  • Demonstrated success in launching digital products and services. 1+ year team management experience
  • 7+ years experience in digital product design from consultancies, in-house environments etc. Your story/portfolio reflects a solid foundation in understanding the complexity and intricacies of business problems, human needs and how they can be solved through products delivered.
