Senior, User Experience Design

Be part of an amazing story

Macy's is more than just a store. We're a story. One that's captured the hearts and minds of America for more than 160 years. A story about innovations and traditions...about inspiring stores and irresistible products...about the excitement of the Macy's 4th of July Fireworks, and the wonder of the Thanksgiving Day Parade. We've been part of memorable moments and milestones for countless customers and colleagues.

Those stories are part of what makes this such a special place to work.

The Senior User Experience Designer shapes the end-to-end customer and colleague experiences across the enterprise applications for our Macys and Bloomingdales brands and retail stores, bringing Macy's strategic vision to life through impactful and connected digital and physical (phygital) designs. With at least 5 years of experience in digital and service design, this role requires a strong track record of delivering elegant, scalable, and high-quality designs in fast-paced, cross-functional environments.

This designer applies systems thinking to unify fragmented touchpoints into cohesive journeys, leverages service design to align front stage and backstage operations and applies information architecture to simplify complex ecosystems. They balance business objectives with user needs, conduct field discovery in stores to ground designs in real-world conditions, and design for phygital environments where digital and physical experiences converge.

In addition to creating best-in-class experiences, the Senior UX Designer also mentor's teammates and partners closely with product, technology, research, and business leaders to ensure alignment with Macy's strategic goals.
