Weber Connect

A companion app for BBQ enthusiasts that, paired with a smart thermometer, monitors food and grill status. I collaborated closely with engineers and R&D to design guided cooking features, an inspiration hub (recipes, guides), and upsell moments. I also led the design system across Android, iOS, and WatchOS.
