Job Description:
Want to help scale Amazon’s global fulfillment workforce,
supporting them with efficient, engaging, and empowering user
experiences while keeping them safe and happy? Join the Amazon
Fulfillment Technologies Experience Design team (AFT-XD). We are
seeking a Senior UX Designer who is passionate about the
intersection of the physical and virtual worlds, reaching beyond
what is shown on a screen to include the physical environment,
building layout, equipment, work processes – anything and
everything that impacts how work inside our fulfillment centers
gets done. The ideal candidate will be a problem-solver,
self-learner, and self-starter who looks around corners to identify
user problems and needs, proactively initiates the design process,
delivers user-centric design, and influences stakeholders to
positively impact experiences within Amazon’s global fulfillment
network. You will create solutions that scale, utilizing multiple
tools and techniques to communicate your ideas. As a Senior UX
Designer, you will work alongside a cross-functional team of
designers, product managers, and engineers to invent solutions that
improve the safety, productivity, and engagement of 1M Amazon
associates who work in Amazon’s fulfillment network worldwide. You
will own and drive the user experience from a global perspective
and participate in research studies to deliver simple, elegant, and
highly functional designs. You will help build relationships across
teams and countries, promote collaboration and efficiency, and
raise the user experience bar to improve the lives of our
fulfillment center team members and ultimately deliver smiles to
Amazon customers. What can we offer you in return? You will be part
of a growing team that will support, challenge, and inspire you
every day. AFT-XD is a multidisciplinary team of designers,
researchers, front-end engineers, design technologists, and program
managers who shape and simplify the fulfillment center experience
through a human-centered design process. Our experiences are
offered on a range of devices that evolve as rapidly as our
operations do. You will work on complex, strategic products that
rethink how fulfillment centers work. You will also have a voice in
defining and choosing projects where you think design can have most
impact. In addition, you will be able to grow in this role. Your
fellow designers, user researchers, design technologists, and
front-end engineers on our team (and in the larger Amazon design
community) will provide you with support and mentorship. We invest
in our team members to help them build their unique careers. Key
