To do this you'll use your knowledge of the UX process (research, conceptual design, prototyping, testing) in collaboration with other architects, designers, content strategists, researchers, product managers and engineers. You've created business and consumer product experiences for different channels and platforms, often working with senior UX leaders and managers to complete these projects.

You can work without close supervision but you seek out and welcome feedback from senior UX leaders and managers. You love to solve complex problems and work closely with others who feel the same, and your solutions merge with a larger structure to create a cohesive design ecosystem.

• Strong understanding of design theory and concepts to create effective visual communication with hierarchy and balance (e.g., Typography, color, space, contrast)
• The ability to work with design templates and patterns to create and maintain a scalable and consistent web site
• Familiarity with process flows, site maps, wireframes, screen prototypes, and functional specifications
• Ability to manage your time and deadlines, as well as the ability to adapt to the ever-changing priorities of the eCommerce business
• Constant drive to stay up-to-date with the latest industry news and developments
• Capability to adhere to team processes and standards, while contributing ideas for improvement

• Experience with business requirement gathering, site assessment, competitive analysis, and secondary research
• Experience negotiating business decisions
• Inclusive design philosophy with a strong editorial sense. You gather feedback judiciously, but know when to adjust your designs and when to follow your initial vision. Minimum Qualifications:
