Sr. UX Designer, Alexa for Shopping

DESCRIPTION

The Alexa for Shopping design team is seeking a Senior User Experience Designer to help us invent features for Amazon’s personalised, agentic AI assistant. Our new experience brings together the best of Rufus and Alexa+ to deliver a more personal, helpful shopping experience across a wide range of surfaces and devices - from the Amazon Shopping app and website to Echo Show, where customers can now browse and shop the full Amazon store using voice, touch, or both.

To thrive in this role, you must be a pioneer with an inventor’s spirit - someone with a strong command of visual and interaction design who is passionate about technology and innovation. You can work at pace, handle several projects, and quickly interpret and balance business and customer requirements to translate them into intuitive, elegant design solutions. You know how to present ideas professionally through a strategic and creative lens. You must be comfortable working with project briefs and managing stakeholder inputs, functional requirements, and timelines. You have a solid understanding of user experience design fundamentals - including information architecture, interaction patterns, and visual hierarchy - combined with a deep understanding of how to collaborate with conversation designers, researchers, product management, engineering, data science, and operational teams as you go from early-stage product concepts to launches of new features and experiences.
