Own end-to-end product design for core experiences in Amazon OpenSearch Service, with focus on agentic search and agentic observability. Responsibilities Lead end-to-end design for a core OpenSearch experience, covering problem framing, research, interaction design, visual craft, production implementation, and post-launch measurement Define the experience for Winnow / agentic search , including how customers express intent, how agent planning and reasoning are surfaced, how results and provenance earn trust, and how customers stay in control Work as a true end-to-end builder while embedded in a builder pod, shaping what gets built and sequencing delivery (not only presentation layer) Design for genuine complexity across high-volume workflows, including search relevance, vector and semantic search, log analytics, dashboards, observability workflows, alerting, and root-cause investigation Help define agentic observability alongside agentic search by designing interfaces that surface agent reasoning, findings, and remediation, with trust as the primary design problem Run research that ships, including structured research cycles, trust-calibration studies, and competitive signal capture that feeds the roadmap directly Contribute to and extend the OpenSearch design system (OUI) to keep patterns consistent, accessible, and scalable across the product Partner daily with PMs and engineers to balance customer needs, deep technical constraints, and business goals Raise the design bar through critique, mentorship, and reusable patterns Requirements 7+ years of design experience Available online portfolio Tools & Technologies Figma OpenSearch Amazon OpenSearch Service OUI Compensation & Location Location: Bellevue, WA (onsite) Salary: USD 137,800 - 205,000 per year Benefits Health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D, option for Supplemental life plans), EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage 401(k) matching Paid time off Parental leave Sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs) A Day in the Life Start with a design review presenting a systems-level concept to product and engineering, covering how a new interaction pattern scales across multiple surfaces Shift into hands-on Figma craft work to refine a prototype based on recent research findings Facilitate cross-functional alignment sessions where stakeholders converge on a shared path forward Mentor fellow designers, write persuasive strategy documents, and use AI tools to rapidly explore ideas About the Team Design team behind Amazon OpenSearch Service, with six designers embedded in OpenSearch builder pods to own the experience from problem framing through production Building net-new patterns for agentic search and agentic observability , focused on how customers trust a system that searches, reasons, and acts Operating principles: end-to-end builders , research that ships , and a self-learning design system (OUI evolving toward agentic patterns) Treat design as a competitive weapon, with senior ownership and a focus on craft, research, and raising each other's work #J-18808-Ljbffr
