I have spent the last 14 hours updating https://www.notion.so/mui-org/Hiring-timeline-eae823b3292249829dee677b21a53f0e#24cd9b32f9214b8c9c34d832cd7a5363. The process was:
A note on the open roles. For some of the roles in Notion, there are multiple roles on the career page. The idea for me is to create more tailored job offers to see who will bit 🎣. A second note, some of these roles don't have to be filled by external team members, internal hire could work as well. Happy reviewing 😁. I plan to do a second pass, to fix typos, but 😴 for now. |

I think that the current description place what matters most first: the primary goal is to own most of MUI's design work. Overseeing a team is one aspect of reaching this end. Maybe?

- Ensure high quality UI and UX across teams, libraries, components, and product strategy
- Collaborate with product management and engineering to ensure that design work is aligned with business goals and user needs
- Create design concepts, prototypes, and high-fidelity mockups for projects on the X, Core, and Toolpad teams
- Update and implement new components on the Core, X, and Toolpad teams
- Develop and maintain MUI’s design system and style guide
As a team leader, you will:
- Manage the design process, including user research, user flows, and user testing
- Review design work and provide feedback to ensure overall design quality and consistency, with consideration to both UI and UX.
- Set goals, priorities, and distribute tasks for the design team
- Provide mentorship and support to two existing design team members
- Hire and retain a great team
- Oversee the Design Kits, ensuring they’re aligned with engineering implementation.
- **Expert-level knowledge of UX design**. You can build intuitive UIs, both at the scope of an application and of a component micro-interaction. | ||
- **Enough development skills to implement the designed interfaces**. Our React engineers are often busy implementing complex components. We are looking for somebody with enough CSS-in-JS and JSX skills to not depend on them to implement the design. | ||
- **Strong written and verbal communication skills**. As part of the team, you'll interface both directly and indirectly with community members and enterprise customers, and contribute to user documentation. Clear communication is fundamental in creating intuitive and compelling resources. | ||

### What would be nice if you had, but isn't required | ||
|
||
- **You've contributed to a design system before**. You have worked on a library of components in the past, maybe for internal usage in your company. | ||
- **You have other complementary skills**. We are a tiny team of 6 people. We could use any hidden skills that you might have. Maybe you are great at creating animations or creating illustrations. |

Small edit: update the number of our tiny team
Larger question: Perhaps cut this line? I don't know if we are gaining much by explicitly adding a catch-all for detailed skills when we are more looking for managerial duties.
