Job Summary:

About the Role:

Disney’s technology organization is growing our team of passionate product designers on a mission to entertain, inform and inspire people around the globe through the power of unparalleled storytelling. As the group that develops Disney Plus, Hulu, ESPN+, and dozens of other Disney apps and enterprise products, we are builders with a relentless dedication to adding a little magic to people’s lives – whether they are streaming a Pixar movie or using the tools that power our business.

We are seeking an exceptional Sr Product Designer to fill a critical role in our Ad Platforms team. As a key member of a growing design team driving high-priority initiatives, this person will have a unique opportunity to help create the future of Disney’s thriving streaming business. If you are passionate about shipping high-utility flows that are also high-craft, bringing simplicity to complex processes, leveraging AI for efficiency, and seeing your work have a direct impact on the bottom line, we’d love to hear from you. 

This person will play a key part in our efforts to improve customer ROI and dramatically streamline ad campaign planning, creative review, targeting, and trafficking – with an opportunity to shape both the strategy and design vision for our evolving advertising platform. 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. In this role, you will work independently across multiple projects, both build 0-1 solutions and optimize existing functionality, and apply in-depth knowledge about best-practices and evolving technologies. 

Specifically, the person in this role will be expected to:

  • Take full ownership of projects that involve end-to-end features or products within a clearly scoped set of product requirements

  • Design intuitive, easy-to-understand user experiences that enhance the overall product

  • 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

  • BA/BS or equivalent experience required

The hiring range for this position in Los Angeles is $126,400 to $169,500 per year, in New York or Seattle is $132,500 to $177,600 per year, and in San Francisco is $138,500 to $185,600 per year. The base pay actually offered will take into account internal equity and also may vary depending on the candidate’s geographic region, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience among other factors. A bonus and/or long-term incentive units may be provided as part of the compensation package, in addition to the full range of medical, financial, and/or other benefits, dependent on the level and position offered.
