UX Manager, Amazon Ads
New York, New York
We are looking for a high-caliber proven design leader to create innovative experiences that connect brands and businesses with their customers; globally and at scale. In this role, you'll lead a high-performing team of UX professionals-working collaboratively with user research, engineering, and product management through all aspects of the product development life-cycle.
This work has strategic significance and high exposure. You'll have the opportunity to build new advertising solutions starting with product definition. Most importantly, you will have a direct impact on the customer experience of shoppers, advertisers, and brand-owners globally.
Amazon Ads operates at the intersection of eCommerce and advertising, offering a rich array of digital display advertising solutions with the goal of helping our customers find and discover anything they want to buy. We help advertisers reach Amazon customers on Amazon.com, across our other owned and operated sites, on other high-quality sites across the web, and on millions of smart TVs, Alexa, tablets, and mobile devices. We start with the customer and work backwards in everything we do, including advertising. If you're interested in joining a team working to build a unique, truly innovative advertising group with a relentless focus on the customer, you've come to the right place.
Key job responsibilities

- Drive operational excellence across the team that cultivates a positive environment and inclusive culture.
- Responsibly and effectively advocate for customers; imparting day-to-day strategic design leadership that fosters a shared understanding of the customer-centric intersection between design, content, business and technology needs.
- Hire, develop and mentor design talent within your team and across the organization.
- Partner with user researchers and product managers to appropriately assess and optimize the performance of new and existing features (using, usability findings, customer feedback, site metrics, etc.)
Our ideal candidate is a pragmatic manager who is at ease visualizing an experience in the abstract and then driving that vision into solid design deliverables (e.g. UI, IA, prototypes) with their team.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- 3+ years experience in design leadership roles, with direct management of 6+ designers.
- 6+ years of design experience.
- A comprehensive online portfolio or samples of work demonstrating past experience of shipped work on emerging spaces.
- Experience leading teams to create cohesive experiences across multiple channels and touch points.
- Experience leading design teams in problem definition, artifact rendering, cross-functional collaboration and delivery, and user validation and measurement.
- Experience influencing and negotiating priorities with other teams.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Excellent communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills with the ability to gracefully defend your team's design decisions.
- Proven ability to work cross-team, synthesize feedback and input from business leaders, customer research/analytics and to design creative solutions.
- Ability to work efficiently and demonstrate a bias for action in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment.
- Experience designing products for global markets.
- Desire to work in a start-up style environment, where iteration and learning is encouraged.
