    Description

    AWS is looking for a Senior Designer to play a critical role within our events design ecosystem and contribute to the broader AWS brand experience. This is an individual contributor role focused on experiential design, environmental graphics, and signage systems - bringing the AWS brand to life in physical and hybrid spaces at a scale few companies can match.

    Working within the larger events design practice led by our Creative Director of Global Events, you will be a driving force in shaping how AWS shows up in physical and digital spaces - from our flagship re:Invent to regional Summits, executive briefings, and partner activations. You are equal parts creative leader and pragmatic executor: someone who can concept a bold environmental experience and then see it through to flawless production. You will also contribute to projects outside of events as a way to stretch, grow, and bring fresh perspective to the team.

    This role requires a designer who thrives in collaborative, cross-functional environments. You will work closely with the Creative Director of Global Events, event producers, brand strategists, creative leads, agency partners, and production vendors - bringing clarity, craft, and creative ambition to every touchpoint attendees encounter.

    Key job responsibilities

    Events & Experiential Design Leadership

    Design and execute across AWS global events - concepting, developing, and producing environmental design, signage systems, wayfinding, stage scenic, branded installations, and immersive activations

    Develop scalable design frameworks that flex across event types and sizes - from a 60,000-person conference to a 200-person executive dinner

    Translate brand strategy into three-dimensional, multi-sensory experiences that create lasting impressions and reinforce AWS"s position as the industry leader

    Ensure consistency and quality across all event surfaces - digital signage, printed collateral, environmental creative, badges, swag, and interactive installations

    Partner with technology teams to integrate digital and interactive elements into physical spaces thoughtfully

    Event Systems & Environmental Graphics

    Design and maintain comprehensive signage systems that guide attendees through complex venue environments with clarity and brand consistency

    Develop modular, production-ready templates for various applications, from demo booths to badges, that scale across venues, languages, and regional contexts

    Balance functional operational needs with brand storytelling and creative ambition

    Collaboration & Cross-Functional Partnership

    Work as a trusted creative partner to the Creative Director of Global Events, event producers, program managers, internal stakeholders, agencies, and vendors - bringing strategic design thinking to operational planning conversations

    Participate actively in creative reviews, offering constructive feedback that elevates the work across the team

    Collaborate with the broader Brand & Creative team on projects outside of events - campaigns, brand systems, digital experiences - contributing your perspective and growing your range

    Digest conflicting feedback from multiple stakeholders, balance subjective opinions with objective constraints, and propose solutions that move decisions forward

    Raising the Bar

    Push creative boundaries within production realities - finding innovative solutions that surprise and delight without compromising feasibility or timeline

    Bring outside inspiration from industries beyond tech - architecture, retail, hospitality, entertainment - to inform how AWS shows up in physical spaces

    Document and share best practices, templates, and learnings that help the broader team execute events at a higher standard over time

    Proactively identify opportunities to improve the attendee experience through design thinking

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
