Senior Product Designer

Location:

We are seeking a Senior Product Designer to help us create the single best place for users to experience one of our iconic brands, The New Yorker.

In this role, you'll create and iterate on features that translate a century's worth of iconic print experiences into the digital space, and introduce new experiences in the areas of audio, apps, puzzles, games, and more.

As a Senior Product Designer, you're inspired by big-picture problem solving and honing your craft. You are a critical thinker and a storyteller who is able to transform ambiguous problem spaces into clear and actionable design solutions.

Responsibilities include:

• Driving clarity as a primary designer on projects, managing the design from inception to delivery.

• Crafting deliverables that create clarity throughout the product development and design process: developing frameworks, user flows, mockups, prototypes, final visuals, and rigorously annotated designs

• Supporting high-level product strategy, ensuring we're asking the right questions and solving for actual user and business needs

• Creating clarity in undefined yet complex problem spaces

• Preparing artifacts for user research, and participating in user research sessions

• Collaborate with engineers in multiple locations, on implementing the features you design, and ensure the visual and user experience quality of our output

• Maintaining, contributing to, and evolving a robust design system used by Conde Nast's portfolio of brands

• Sustainably translating the visual language of our brands to new scenarios and applications

• Engaging with thoughtful critique within your direct team as well as with stakeholders from Editorial and other adjacent departments

The ideal candidate has:

• At least five years of design experience, preferably working on consumer-facing digital products

• An understanding of how qualitative research and data inform product and design decisions

• A commitment to typographic excellence, and a sensitivity to the most minute details

• Experience creating advanced prototypes utilizing real content and data; harnessing video or animation when necessary.

• Experience working within a design system, and an understanding of when to create new extensible patterns

• Proficiency in Figma or Sketch (Figma preferred)

• Excellent communication skills (both verbal and written), with the ability to define and defend the rationale behind decisions

• Experience working on cross-functional teams, collaborating closely with product managers and engineers

• Proficiency in quality assurance processes for both functional and visual QA, in collaboration with engineering

• Proactive work ethic, including the ability to take direction while also showing initiative

• Familiarity with the history, style, and values of The New Yorker

The expected base salary range for this position is from $110,000 - $135,000. Salary offers are based on a wide range of factors including but not limited to relevant skills, training, experience, and education.
