Job description



DESCRIPTION

Are you interested in building a new service for AWS customers? Want to make a multi-million-dollar impact to our customers’ bottom line and disrupt the status quo? We are a brand new team at AWS developing a new external facing service that will help customers track and analyze their data to solve some of their most critical business problems. As a foundational member, you’ll be responsible for driving the team’s long-term vision and architecture, drive/shape roadmaps, and provide customer empathy and insightful leadership to the product and engineering effort.

As a Senior UX Designer who leads by doing, you value diversity of thought and background, have a passion for solving problems at massive scale and bring your best self to work every day. You improve, iterate, and reimagine the product experience to shape the next generation of analytics tools.

What You’ll Bring

You have demonstrated design acumen and believe in the power of scalable systems, strategically designed to differentiate and increase customer loyalty.

You’ll 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. To be successful, you need to be highly motivated and detail oriented while showing the highest standards.
