    Job Description

    Ever wanted to design the tools that keep Amazon"s global infrastructure running, from ground-up construction through decades of daily operation? This is your chance to shape how thousands of people experience enterprise software that actually matters.

    We"re looking for a UX Designer who thrives on complexity and loves making it simple. You"ll own end-to-end design delivery for products used by project managers, field engineers, site leaders, and finance analysts across 50+ countries. You won"t just push pixels; you"ll run design consultations, conduct field research, build reusable design patterns, and ship experiences that directly impact safety, speed, and cost at a massive scale.

    This is a high-autonomy role. You"ll be embedded with engineering teams, facilitating design reviews, and making daily decisions that shape how people do their jobs. If you want ownership, variety, and the satisfaction of seeing your work used by real operators in real buildings, keep reading.

    Key job responsibilities

    Own end-to-end design delivery for multiple concurrent projects: user flows, wireframes, prototypes, and production-ready specifications

    Facilitate regular design consultation sessions, providing expert feedback to product teams on in-progress and pre-launch work

    Conduct design quality assurance on shipped features, identifying discrepancies between design intent and implementation

    Build and maintain a domain-specific pattern library extending the corporate design system with reusable components

    Run regular design office hours, offering guidance and early directional feedback to any team that needs it

    Conduct user research (shadows, interviews, usability tests) to validate decisions and surface unmet needs

    Contribute to cross-team experience strategy, information architecture, and long-term vision for a unified product suite

    Collaborate daily with product managers, engineers, and data scientists to translate complex business requirements into clear, intuitive experiences

    A day in the life

    Your primary focus is shaping the end-to-end user experience for internal tools that support strategic planning and investment decisions. You"ll partner closely with product managers, engineers, and business stakeholders to translate complex workflows into intuitive, scalable designs. A typical day might include leading a design review, synthesizing research findings into actionable recommendations, or prototyping solutions for problems no one has solved yet. Beyond the regular beat, you"ll influence design direction across adjacent teams and help establish UX standards that raise the bar for the broader organization.

    About the team

    You"ll join a small, high-impact design team embedded within an organization of 200+ teammates managing 100+ enterprise technology products. These products enable teams worldwide to plan, deliver, and operate a global network of 5,500+ physical sites across 50 countries. Our UX practice is in its first year. We"re building from the ground up: defining how design works, how it scales, and what great looks like. Culture: we move fast, ship iteratively, and let evidence drive decisions. Expect variety, autonomy, and colleagues who care deeply about the people using what we build.

    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.
