* Able to communicate clearly and give/receive feedback openly.
Bonus points
* Experience designing for AI-assisted workflows or character builders.
* Understanding of how kids think and play — from real testing or parent perspective.

What we offer
* Freelance contract (10–15 hours/week), flexible and remote.
