We are looking for a UX Designer to help us build the future of the Amazon Lists experience. The right candidate is at ease assisting in research, the creation of scenarios, sketches, story boards, wire-frames, and prototypes. You will assist the team in visualizing an experience in the abstract, gather relevant research data, break down complex use-cases, and ultimately help drive the vision into solid design deliverables. You think first from the customer’s perspective, set relentlessly high standards for yourself and deliver best-in-class design work. You thrive in a fast-paced, agile environment and embrace the idea that failure is a critical part of innovation. You balance your passion for inspired, compelling, elegant yet simple designs with a highly analytical nature, immaculately precise execution, and a relentless drive to learn, design, build and deliver.
Key job responsibilities
- Collaborate cross-functionally with design, product, engineering, and research teams from early concept through launch, ensuring bar-raising quality to market.
- Create and communicate the vision for user experiences across a range of surfaces and interaction models, including mobile, voice, and conversational patterns.
- Use customer research, competitive analysis, behavioral signals, and quantitative data to identify opportunities, validate design direction, and continuously refine assumptions.
- Build scalable pattern libraries, templates, and component specs that support consistency and integrate with broader design systems.
- Think systemically, designing within and contributing to frameworks that create coherent experiences, while knowing when to create unique, product-defining moments.
- Tell compelling stories through the user experience and in reviews, driving alignment with partners and leadership through clear verbal and written communication.
- Inspire and elevate the craft of the UX team through collaboration, feedback, and a commitment to continuous learning.
A day in the life

You have a passion for solving our customers' problems, always putting their needs first.
