- Has a valid passport
- Is fluent in English (spoken & written)
- Bonus: strong interest in health, fitness, or behavioral science

- Design Experiences: Build personas, map user journeys, design flows, and create prototypes with cutting-edge tools
- Prototype & Test: Quickly build, test, and iterate prototypes with users and clients
- Entrepreneurial Spirit: You think beyond silos, take initiative, and drive the product’s success as a whole
- Stay Fresh & Tech-Savvy: Constantly scout and integrate new UX methods and especially AI-driven tools into your workflow
