Amazon is hiring : Sr. UX Designer, Chronicle Analytics in New York

Description

The Chronicle team is seeking a Senior UX Designer who leads by doing and is comfortable with all stages of the product lifecycle; from early generative research to initial product definition, from white boarding new interaction models to creating highly refined mock ups, flows and motion design studies. From pitching new concepts to internal and external stakeholders to testing new concepts with customers.

We are developing systems that will use technology to fundamentally change the way Amazon business is managed. We are looking for a designer who will think outside the box, providing an experience that internal and external customers feel is better than anything else they have ever used. You have an “anything is possible” mindset when faced with seemingly intractable problems. You will work alongside product management and engineering to define and build the essential lovable product. This position requires deep customer focus, the ability to dive deep and invent, and the ability to make hard decisions fast.

You’re proud of your work, your skills and expertise – but you’re not cynical, inflexible or only about your portfolio; you want to be part of something great. You love being part of a highly collaborative and high-energy team that isn’t afraid to swing for the fences or exceed expectations even on tactical projects. We are looking for candidates who thrive in a fast-paced startup like environment. To be successful, you need to be highly motivated and detail oriented while showing highest standards of responsibilities.
