What You'll DoMarketplace Experience- Own the end-to-end design of the Fanatics Collect Marketplace - Buy Now, Weekly Auctions, and Premier Auctions.
- Make it the easiest way to find the card a collector is looking for - search, browse, filtering, and discovery that scale as the marketplace grows.
- Build the trust and transparency collectors expect from the world's leading auction house for trading cards - clear listings, clear provenance, clear outcomes.
- Balance the distinct mechanics of fixed-price buying and live/ongoing auctions within one coherent experience.
- Partner with Product and Engineering to raise the bar on usability, hierarchy, and interaction patterns.
Engagement & Trust- Design the moments that make bidding, buying, and selling feel exciting, not stressful - anticipation without anxiety.
- Champion clarity and transparency at every step: pricing, fees, authentication, and order status.
- Use data and collector feedback to continuously improve conversion, trust, and satisfaction.
Cross-Surface Coherence- Partner with the Live/Breaking and TOPPS.com design leads so shared patterns - search, navigation, checkout - feel consistent across all three surfaces.
- Partner with Creative Studio so the Marketplace reflects Fanatics Collect's trusted, auction-house brand voice.
- Partner with the Shared Experience team on the design system, search, and navigation patterns the Marketplace depends on.
Craft & Quality- Hold a high craft bar - every listing, every card, every transaction should feel worthy of what collectors love.
- Push quality from concept through shipped execution, partnering closely with Engineering to preserve design intent.
- Mentor other designers and help raise the craft standard across the team.
Who You Are- 7+ years of product design experience, ideally including marketplace, e-commerce, or auction/commerce design.
- A systems thinker who can design for both fast, fixed-price buying and the anticipation of live auctions.
- Comfortable moving from user flows and information architecture to detailed UI and interaction design.
- Data-informed: you use research and metrics to drive decisions, not just instinct.
- A clear communicator who can align Product, Engineering, Brand, and adjacent design leads.
