In addition to shipping great work, we are equally committed to a design culture that is inspiring, collaborative, and fun - and this person will also have leadership opportunities to shape how we work.
Key Responsibilities:
Sr Product Designers at Disney are resourceful, imaginative problem solvers who collaborate inclusively with a range of engineering, product management, and other teammates and stakeholders throughout the design process.

  • Create and iterate on flows, prototypes and high-fidelity visuals to communicate ideas
  • Actively contribute to product-level decision-making by participating in team meetings, cross-functional groups, and collaborative feedback sessions
  • Consistently deliver work that is well-thought-out and aligned with project goals
  • Demonstrate sustained productivity and meet project deadlines by accurately estimating the time required for tasks
  • Set an example for designers in your orbit through mentorship and open, honest feedback


Qualifications:
As an applicant to this role, we ask that your portfolio demonstrates:

  • 5+ years of relevant industry experience
  • Experience shipping high-utility mobile or desktop applications, simplifying complex user flows, or delivering new product innovation that disrupted conventions
  • Expert understanding of user-centered design principles and best practices
  • Self-motivated problem solving with the ability to work on multiple projects simultaneously
  • Ability to communicate complex concepts clearly and persuasively
  • Hunger for innovation, fluidity with ideas, eagerness to challenge the status quo
  • Strong interest in and aptitude for learning new technologies and design skills
  • Strong work ethic, are reliable, adaptable, and collaborate well with others
  • Ability to design within design guides and contribute to design language
  • Expert knowledge of Figma and/or other design tools
