- Lead design for new monetization surfaces (Marketplace Payments, Mobile Monetization, new commercial models) from 0 to 1
- Simplify complex billing/subscription flows (plan switching, refunds, backup payment methods) to reduce customer effort and support case volume
- Build and evolve a shared design system for payments/commerce patterns used across LinkedIn's product surfaces
