Full Job Description
We are hiring a Senior UX/Product Designer to help turn complex problems into clear, thoughtful product experiences on a team that values collaboration and shared ownership. You will design for both e-commerce journeys for our customers and data rich, efficiency focused tools used by fellow associates, working closely with product and engineering to ensure solutions hold up in real world use. This is a team that cares deeply about craft, usability, and consistency, while staying practical about shipping and learning along the way. We value curiosity, support one another, and are always looking for ways to improve both the work and how it gets delivered.

Location: Flexible Hybrid (Lakeland, FL): To support our hybrid work model, candidates must reside, or be willing to relocate, within a commutable distance of Lakeland, FL.
Work Model: Enjoy the best of both worlds-collaborate in person and innovate remotely.
Interview Process: Candidates selected to advance in the interview process will be required to participate in at least one onsite interview at our Lakeland, FL campus.

Your Impact
  • Own design work from early problem framing through final delivery, creating solutions that reflect real customer needs while balancing business goals and technical constraints.
  • Partner closely with product managers and engineers to shape scope, align tradeoffs, and keep work moving steadily toward launch.
  • Share work early and often, helping turn ideas into clear direction, surfacing the right feedback at the right time, and driving decisions forward.
  • Explore concepts, test with customers, and use research, data, and prototyping to continuously refine and strengthen the product direction.
  • Demonstrate strong judgment in applying new tools, workflows, and AI-enabled approaches to improve design quality, accelerate learning, and expand how the team delivers.
  • Contribute to the evolution of the design system by refining patterns and components and helping teams build more consistent experiences.
  • Present work at an expert level, clearly articulating rationale, framing tradeoffs, and providing the context needed to help cross functional partners align and make confident decisions.
