GTMC’s UX team enables these products by researching our customer's talent needs, and crafting solutions into consumer-grade user experiences that Amazonians love to use.

We’re looking for a Principal UX Designer to further accelerate our vision--to wake up every day obsessing about the employee experience at Amazon. In this role, you will share responsibility for crafting the vision for our next-generation product suite and leading the execution of that vision. You'll craft elegant design solutions across a range of personas and platforms, collaborate closely with product and engineering partners, and scale your solutions throughout Amazon's People and Experience Technology (PXT) organization. You will join and partner closely with a team of passionate designers and researchers to create products to address the sheer scale of HR at Amazon, while providing engaging, personal, and human experiences.

To succeed in this role, you must be an innovative self-starter, a strategic big-picture thinker, and a dedicated collaborator.
