What will you do?

A day in the life of a Senior UX Designer at VF looks a little like this.

This hands-on, Denver-based role allows one to craft the work and enable others to deliver high quality solutions. Designers work closely with the product owners, developers, researchers, and design team to create the next generation of digitally enabled customer experiences in retail.

Let’s break down that day in the life a bit more:

• Powerful impulse to improve existing designs, invent new experiences, and perform better than our competition
• Build a measurable product vision with your team that produces results
• Connect people across the organization to align on a common opportunity space and facilitate idea generation
• Demonstrate to others ‘how’ and ‘why’ design decisions are made; help them understand how we work
• Encouraging leadership in mobile UX and product design
• Be resourceful and work consultatively with partners to determine if and which research methods are most appropriate for the problem at hand
• Challenge traditional assumptions about UX Design and Research – seeking out, inventing, and testing new approaches and technologies

What do you need to succeed?

We all have unique skills that we bring to work and celebrate every day. For this role, there are foundation skills you’ll need to succeed and excel. Additionally, while formal education in a related field is great to have, we are most interested in your 5 years of experience and professional achievements.
