Tools & Process

Tools and Process

End-to-end Deliverable Build

Actionable steps and sample execution. Technology will adapt depending on company, project, team deliverable type and/or campaign size.

I'm really interested in forming better efficiencies and improving my design tech stack knowledge.

Set up our Ticket Source: communication, iterative update, time estimation, points of contact, JTBD, file organization + setup, and deliverable links.

Planning + Research: Gathered insights, content, user flows, metrics, and created hypotheses to test. Understand the project goals / brief. Ask follow-up questions.

Communication and Syncs: Create deadlines, milestones, prioritization, and video/in-person syncs on Google Calendar for standups or project updates.

Deliverable Execution: Create wireframes, 2-3 low to high-fidelity options, tag, guide and encourage specific feedback from design team / stakeholders

Testing: Organize UXR / Product Manager (Optimizely, Hotjar, G4, Usertesting) experiments. Report findings. Iterate with findings. Repeat until significant stats.

Share & Present: How'd we do? Post our wins on Slack. Tag people that supported our project. Create a slide with high fidelity mocks on results.

Documentation + Retro: Close ticket and all files with up-to-date designs + info. Update Figma + Confluence. Understand team processes for future efficiency.
