Senior UX/Service Designer

Job summary
Have you ever contacted customer service and thought, “I could make this experience better”? Or wondered about the associate on the other end of the line? We’re looking for a Senior UX Designer to help us as we reimagine Amazon customer support for all Amazon devices and digital services (such as Echo, Fire TV, Prime Video, and Kindle).

Our team works on solving hard problems like how to help associates remotely troubleshoot a customer’s smart home setup, or how to manage customers’ digital content and subscriptions across services and devices, all at Amazon scale.

You’ll do great in this role if you are:

• Collaborative, flexible, and thrive taking ownership in ambiguous situations.
• Curious and love to dive deep and solve challenging problems with thoughtful and elegant solutions.
