Sr. Product Designer

The Opportunity: Ziff Davis Shopping is rebuilding its digital product experiences and redefining the role of design across the company. We’re looking for a principal product designer who can help carry a consumer experience from early releases to durable, market-leading scale. This is not a role for a screen-only designer. It’s for an experienced product thinker who can architect systems, shape product strategy, ship high-quality mobile and web experiences, and evolve a product over time.
