You have always dreamed of an opportunity to create a kick-ass (sports!) media product from the ground up. You’re empathetic to customer needs. You are curious, and are always looking for innovative ways to deliver world-class experiences to our customers.

Your design process is well-defined, and consistently leads you to successful solutions.

  • Drive the product design of insights-driven experiences that balance customer and business needs, and drive engagement
  • Collaborate closely with product managers, engineers and other cross-functional stakeholders

  • Partner with product managers to lead, organize, and facilitate user-testing
  • Define and document new patterns and ensure consistency across our products
  • Proactively seek out opportunities to gather constructive feedback early and often
  • Present and articulate design decisions with clarity and rationale
  • Proactively identify and define opportunities for the design team to improve processes, tools, and product experiences
