　　ABOUT THIS ROLE

　　Revolutionizing the storytelling experience is just part of an Audible UX Designer’s daily to-do list. You’ll craft refined interface elements and improve usability for harmonious listening anytime, anywhere, on any platform – including iOS, Android, web, and Alexa. Like us, you’re customer obsessed, and every decision you make will be shaped by your profound understanding and curiosity of the customer experience. Just when it seems a product is perfected, you’ll envision a thoughtful new way to take it further. Your creativity will take deep customer insight and transform it into innovative experiences that will continuously evolve the UX, all while discovering new ways to unleash the power of the spoken word.

　　ABOUT YOU

　　Life inspires your work. You look to yourself for insight, and can’t help keeping a running list of ways to improve your own UX. You’re most creative when working through situational restraints, from everyday life hacks to professional milestones. You always strive for more, an expert in proactive design thinking. No stone is ever left unturned; you’re all about asking the big questions and the small ones. The only thing more exciting than validating a solution is sharing it with your team. And as a collaborator and mentor, you’ve seen first hand how constructive feedback and a growth mindset create an environment where everyone thrives.
