Work in close and deep collaboration with other designers, researchers, product and engineering – nimbly creating and crafting product solutions together. You’ll create UI and interaction designs for a specific aspect of the buyer’s journey, working as part of a small, empowered team including a product owner and engineers. Together, with a clear mission in your heads and hearts, you’ll ship a lot of engaging, beautiful and personalized new product experiences that genuinely solve buyer problems and delight them with what you create.
Day to day you can expect:
- Work in tight, nimble partnership with your product and tech work teammates, sharing the sweat and joy of building stuff together
- Be celebrated for working with openness, trust, being humble, and being all about helping your team do great work
- Embrace ambiguity and help your team through it, laughing when we make a bad choice before figuring out what to try next
- Help embed a creative, goal-oriented and bold product culture, where we try new things and are curious and open-minded with how to reach each goal
- Have plenty of variety, no two days are the same!

- Passionate about beautiful, intuitive products and enjoy crafting even the smallest details
- Have a strong grasp of design fundamentals such as color theory, typesetting, visual hierarchy, and layout
- Considerate of all types of users, ensuring features are usable by anyone, anywhere, anytime
- User centered, focusing on ease of use and ensuring the purpose and function of each feature is clear
- Experienced in bringing brand personality into your designs to create a memorable experience for users
- Confident in using motion to enhance the experience and guide the user through their intended journey
- Excellent communicators who can utilize a variety of tools including sketches and prototypes to express your ideas clearly
