are built and are undergoing internal UA testing prior to a controlled and limited beta testing.

every interaction that users have with our application. You will study the workflows and design each
interaction to be simple, quick, and effective. We expect you to be highly iterative. You will execute,
measure, refine, and improve every interaction across our application. We are impressed with Apple and
