We also craft world-class experiences that enable our merchants, suppliers, sellers and 2.1 million in-store associates to deliver great value to our customers on a daily basis.

You will create and champion an experience that is highly engaging, usable and deliver pixel-perfect detailed designs. You will build relationships with your product, engineering, and design partners to evangelize the power of design systems and embed them across the organization.
In addition, there are opportunities to help on conventional feature driven work from time to time, so you can see through patterns and help connect them into workflows for launch.
