Dear Hiring Team, Three years ago I redesigned Notion before anyone paid me to — I built an entire freelance studio management system inside it, then taught workshops showing other designers how to do the same. That's when I knew I wanted to work on the product itself. I've spent four years designing SaaS products, most recently leading a complete redesign of our onboarding flow that reduced drop-off by 28%. I approach every design problem the way Notion does: start with how people actually think, not how the product wants them to behave. My Figma work is tight, my user research background means I test assumptions before I build, and I've learned to hold strong opinions loosely — which matters in a product environment where the answer isn't always obvious. What draws me to this role specifically is that Notion's flexible, user-defined workspace model is unlike anything else in the market. I've been a heavy user for three years, I understand where the friction is, and I want to help shape where it goes next. I'd welcome the chance to walk you through my recent case studies and talk about how I think about the kinds of design challenges your team is working through right now. [Applicant Name]
