About The Role
Our team is looking for a product designer to design the platform that operates Disney+, ESPN+, Star+ and Hulu. The design challenge will be to build beautifully-designed applications that make our internal teams more agile, informed and efficient. We believe that powerful and well-designed tools do more than make our work easier. They change how we think about what's possible. The conversation shifts from, ''How can we do this?'' to ''What else can we do?''
• Design innovative, usable and understandable web applications that open new creative possibilities for our teams.
• Rapidly produce multiple solutions using sketches, wireframes and prototypes while instinctively knowing the proper level of detail to communicate your point of view to peers and stakeholders.
• Look towards building sustainable and scalable solutions by developing digital design patterns and libraries.
• Follow a user-centered design process, understanding real users motivations, behaviors and goals. Our teams focus on listening to fans, and letting their needs guide us to the best solutions. It's important for us to know we are solving for real people and not just the competition or stakeholders.
• Work with small multi-disciplinary teams. You'll partner closely with engineering, product, and editorial folks to find elegant but practical solutions to design challenges.

Basic Qualifications:
• You have at least 3 years of experience designing at consumer-focused tech or media companies.
• Your online portfolio demonstrates a mastery of design fundamentals.
• You have a people-focused design mentality. Even though you have incredible chops, you are constantly looking to hone your design instinct through user feedback. Whether through hands-on user research, or by designing options for an A/B test.
• You have experience creating minimum viable products, utilizing rapid prototyping and iterative design techniques.
• You have an innate passion for learning new software design technologies and trends.
• You're autonomous and self-managed. You'll take full ownership your work, and you take responsibility for every last detail, every step of the way.
• You embrace change and ambiguity as an opportunity for design to lead through innovation.
• You are an active voice, consistently contributing to the greater good of the DSS design team.
