- Work closely with developers to understand technical constraints, communicate design intent, and ensure the quality of the final implementation matches the design.

- Continuously evaluate Sanity’s website for opportunities to improve navigation, information hierarchy, visual consistency, usability, and overall experience.

- Stay close to contemporary web design, digital culture, emerging technologies, and interaction patterns while avoiding short-lived trends that compromise usability or longevity.

- Create supporting digital assets for web launches, paid campaigns, and other digital touchpoints when needed.

- Raise the quality of web design across the team through strong visual judgment, thoughtful critique, and hands-on contribution.

- Support product launches, campaigns, and other marketing initiatives with high-quality digital design across paid media, campaign assets, presentations, and other digital touchpoints.
