There are over 5 billion people using everyday applications such as email, messaging, notes, tasks, and calendars, yet most are not AI-native.

- Translate product ideas into clear requirements for engineering.
- Work closely with Android and AI teams to evaluate technical feasibility.
- Prioritize product capabilities for the first prototype and eventual launch.
- Conduct user research and validate interaction patterns.
- Ensure that AI capabilities feel natural and effortless rather than requiring users to learn entirely new interaction patterns.

- Experience building and launching products from early stages.
- Strong understanding of mobile UX and user behavior.
- Ability to translate ambiguous product ideas into concrete requirements.
