The work you’ll do is…
Human-led
People/customers are at the center of our approach. Find creative ways to learn from users and experts to deeply understand their objectives and needs. Envision what might make their workflows and experiences spectacularly better. Conduct exploratory and evaluative sessions to identify critical needs and goals, then refine workflow, UI, and strategy.
Superb craftmanship
You will be designing solutions from concept, wireframes, and prototypes to detailed, visually polished and scalable experiences, ready for implementation. Incorporate feedback quickly and adapt to changes in business requirements and timelines without compromising quality. Leverage the existing design style guide and system, templates, and components to deliver quality on time. Define the new patterns needed for the future. Own & drive the experience of our products - and experience the incredible impact that your work will have on our customers.
Bold, aspirational, exciting
We create solutions that span not just the depth and breadth of the challenges our customers face, but come from our diverse employee base, which is core to our DNA. A modern user experience is not modern if it's one-size-fits-all.
You will work closely with kind, curious and smart designers, researchers, writers, product managers, and engineers across the globe. We believe innovation starts with inclusion – everyone’s voice is heard and valued.
Career Level - IC4
Responsibilities:
You have 8 years of experience. You have worked as an enterprise product designer on complex tasks or authoring tools for at least 5 of those years.
You lead vision. You have a portfolio of work driving the long-view direction across disciplines with compelling stories and beautiful craft, grounded in user value. Clear and persuasive communication is one of your gifts.
You’re a data nerd. Your chart literacy is off the charts. You probably have spreadsheets for your life decisions. You know how to communicate data effectively to others.
You’re a full stack user experience designer. You look at strategy and the product ecosystem, multiple interacting user roles, workflow and information architecture, interaction and visual design, and more. You may be better at some than others, but you know how to talk about each and combine them all into an experience that delights. You can drive your own research to inform and improve your work.
Your collaborations make teams design-led. You make the people around you better. You have a point of view based on user-centered logic and evidence. You communicate clearly and persuasively to set the direction of whole interdisciplinary teams and build alignment among leaders. You are a model to early-career designers and share your skills and tools.
You get stuff done.
You love rules and you know when to break them. You think systemically even beyond your product because creating a coherent experience requires it. But you know when the system needs to expand and when to do something unique to create an arresting and product-defining moment that makes users ooh and aah.
You don’t already know everything and you love to learn. You’re inspired by helping users solve their problems. You love finding out you’re wrong. You consume large amounts of quantitative and qualitative data to constantly refine your assumptions.
And finally, you want to be part of creating spectacular and impactful change at a company that is committed to becoming a light unto others when it comes to user experience design. You might have learned your craft via formal training or via on-the-job training. For most candidates, it’s a combination of both. As long as you’ve got experience and passion doing this work at the highest level, we’d love to talk to you and see a portfolio of the work you’re most proud of.
