We’re looking for a Senior Principal Designer to join our team. You’re the architect of entire product experiences and have created and launched more industry-leading products than you can count. You’re a strong generative and visionary designer with exceptional interaction design skills. You not only lead the largest and most complex projects, you push the organization to seek out new opportunities that will have a positive impact on the business. You partner with senior leaders and VPs across the company to create a vision for what a product should be, and then guide and shape the design from beginning to end as it becomes a reality.

• Owning large end-to-end initiatives that span multiple teams and outcomes at the forefront of a new product area or discipline

• Defining an entire category of experiences, proposing solutions that drive business objectives, and using design methods to identify new opportunities

• Elevating the role of digital design at Nike and facilitating a dialog/awareness between our org and the external design community

• Inspiring and mentoring other designers and raising the bar through your own work and your team's output

• Driving industry-wide thought leadership for highly-visible projects, policies or high-impact initiatives in either scale or level of innovation

• Ensuring cross-functional support for executions by prioritizing and guiding product goals and influencing the strategic approach to the market/industry

• Guiding multiple teams to solve problems previously thought to be insurmountable

• Influencing team culture to be more inclusive, welcoming and candid – identifying and leading Nike Digital Design org, cross pillar, and company-wide initiatives

You’ll work closely and collaboratively with a cross-functional team of product managers, program managers, engineers, researchers and fellow designers to discover and understand business, feature, and user requirements that translate into thoughtful design executions.

WHAT YOU BRING

• 10+ years of relevant experience in the design industry

• An entrepreneurial spirit with a refined business acumen – executives across the company seek your advice and expertise when understanding the future of digital product design

• Strategic thinker who knows how to connect business goals with consumer needs to create the best experience

• Recognized as world-class by peers both internally and externally due to your track record and understanding of data science, experimentation, product, brand, business, and strategy
