What You'll Do
- Evaluate design outputs across a range of formats, including visual assets, layouts, documents, websites, interactive prototypes, and games.
- Identify design flaws and explain when work looks polished but does not function well in practice.
- Refine, restyle, or recreate outputs when needed to produce stronger reference examples.
- Write clear annotations and critiques that distinguish mediocre, good, and excellent design.
- Support the labeling of datasets across graphic design, interface design, web experiences, game feel, and related design writing.
- Work with technical staff on evaluation guidelines, rubrics, and examples that establish a high standard for design quality.
- Handle a broad range of briefs and styles while maintaining consistent quality and judgment.
