About the team and the role:

The Core Buyer Experience team sits at the heart of e Bay, shaping how hundreds of millions of people discover, evaluate, and connect around the things they love. As e Bay evolves the future of commerce, this team plays a critical role in designing intelligent, personalized, and emotionally resonant shopping experiences that go beyond the transactional.

As a Senior Staff Product Designer, you’ll work end-to-end across the buyer journey, identifying where intelligent, personalized, and AI-driven experiences can solve customer problems and create delight. This is a deeply hands-on role that blends strategy with exceptional craft: you’ll translate bold ideas into innovative design solutions, systems, and high-fidelity prototypes that set direction for execution across teams. With close partnership with senior product and engineering leaders, and the opportunity to work at extensive scale, this role offers a rare chance to shape category-defining experiences and help design what the next era of commerce looks like.

What you will accomplish:

• Set experience direction for complex, cross-cutting buyer initiatives, identifying where AI capabilities can materially improve the buyer experience.

• Have the ability to rapidly iterate on and improve existing features while also defining and working toward a broader, end-to-end, long-term vision.

• Lead design for high-impact problem spaces, moving fluidly from concept to high-fidelity execution and prototyping to drive clarity, momentum, and confident decision-making.

• Influence product and engineering strategy by partnering at a senior level, helping frame problems, evaluate tradeoffs, and align teams around a shared experience vision.

• Drive coherence across surfaces and teams by connecting work into durable experience systems, patterns, and principles that scale beyond a single feature or roadmap.

• Elevate design quality across the organization by modelling exceptional craft, mentoring senior designers, and shaping how strong execution shows up in complex, fast paced environments.

What you will bring:

• 12 years of product design experience, including significant time operating as a senior individual contributor on complex, multi-surface or platform-scale products.

• Proven ability to lead design for ambiguous, high-impact problem spaces—setting direction, influencing strategy, and delivering high-quality execution without relying on formal authority.

• Exceptional design craft and execution skills, with a strong portfolio demonstrating systems thinking, interaction design, and the ability to produce high-fidelity designs and prototypes that drive product decisions.

• Experience designing intelligent, data-informed,  AI-enabled experiences, with the ability to translate complex technical capabilities into clear, intuitive user experiences.

• Strong cross-functional partnership skills, with a track record of collaborating closely with senior product and engineering leaders to shape roadmaps and deliver outcomes at scale.

• Excellent communication and storytelling skills, including the ability to articulate design rationale, align partners, and influence decisions across teams and organizational boundaries.
