- Solid understanding of usability and accessibility standards (such as WCAG and ISO 9241), and how to apply them to complex, high-density interfaces

- Pragmatic and delivery-aware, able to balance user needs with business goals, tech and regulatory constraints, and shifting priorities
- Able to collaborate confidently with trading users, stakeholders, business analysts and developers to shape and iterate solutions in environments where accuracy, speed and alignment are critical
