Function seeking a Senior Designer to join our Digital team.

Design and user experience are at the forefront of everything we do. The job of a Senior Designer is to envision how people experience our products and bring that vision to life in a way that feels inspired, refined and even magical.

You may fit this role if you’re excited to:
  • Work closely with other designers to develop and expand product design patterns
  • Help engineers and product managers define both the long-term strategy and the short-term tactics for our products and campaigns
  • Sometimes work on very broadly defined, loose concepts, and sometimes on narrowly defined, tactical features
  • Work in a highly collaborative fashion across product teams
  • Consider all parts of the experience, from copy to animations to business model, when designing
  • Articulate and defend conceptual, design, and directional choices
  • Promote continual creative improvement and actively contribute to a culture of innovation, excellence and accountability
  • Equip leaders with tools to build more just, healthy, and sustainable communities.

Minimum qualifications:
