CoStar Group’s growing Product Design team makes a direct impact on people, creating products for our 60 million users. We are looking for a Senior Product Designer with strength in visual design and user research skills to join our team and support our commitment to user-focused product development. In this role, you will partner closely with various product managers and business analysts in charge of discrete product capabilities as well as broad, cross-product initiatives.

The Senior Product Designer who supports one or more product teams is a passionate customer advocate. You genuinely care about how the products you work on support our users, and you contribute to the success of a user-centered design practice within our organization.

This position is located in Richmond, Virginia and is in office 4 days per week and remote 1 day per week.

Simply put, you love simplifying complex problems. You thrive at being hands‑on and immersive.

You are also experienced working with product teams and know how to clarify requirements and work towards consensus and compromise. You're a proactive self-starter. If you see a problem, you look for ways to fix it instead of waiting for others to fix it for you.

You are looking to shape the experience of the users of our software — to make things better for the user’s sake, not just for design’s sake.

• Create intuitive products that elevate the user experience in delightful ways using best practices, current design trends, and user research
• Collaborate with product managers, executives, and other stakeholders to incorporate specific design requirements, visual treatment, and content structure

• Bachelor’s degree from an accredited, not for profit university or college
• 5+ years relevant design experience, working with a product team
• Experience working on the design and creation of enterprise applications
• Strong communication skills (delivering to both business and technical partners)
