About this role
Amazon North America Stores (NAS) Design organization is seeking our next senior UX designer. Our team is dedicated to being the beacon of design excellence within the highly visual, emotive, and impassioned space where shopping and innovative technology meet. We need your experience, optimism, and energy to build simple, fluid, and beautiful experiences that accommodate Amazon's growing and diverse product selection, and give customers everything they need to make confident buying decisions while delighting them along the way. We are constantly spotting opportunities to set new standards and challenge the status quo, and we need someone who does the same. The right person for this role sets and communicates a high bar for quality, collects data, and triangulates a variety of inputs into insights that inform customer-centered design solutions. You understand how to connect the dots and find opportunities between multiple touch points, and you're passionate about leading design workshops, discovery activities, and creative reviews with colleagues at all levels. Beyond craft, you work strategically with executives and senior leaders to build alignment around broader design strategy and deliver best-in-class products. You're an empathic teammate and mentor who nurtures a thriving, collaborative design culture, and a self-starter who can confidently navigate ambiguity. A senior UX designer role on our team offers the opportunity to lead the design of innovative retail shopping experiences across multiple big, exciting, and diverse programs worldwide. If you're aligned with our leadership principles and ready to make a serious impact on our industry and the world, we'd love to hear from you.
