This team also plays a key role in defining unique sales formats, payments, shipping, logistics, and more.

- Lead & Inspire: Guide and grow a team of designers, fostering a culture of creativity, collaboration, and excellence.
- Design & Execute: Contribute hands-on to critical projects, setting the bar for craft and execution while mentoring others.

- Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with product managers, engineers, and researchers to bring ideas to life, balancing usability, feasibility, and business impact.
- Evolve the Seller Experience: Help build and refine seller tools that support inventory management, product presentation, pricing, payments, and logistics.
- Innovate on Sales Formats: Partner with teams to explore and design unique ways for buyers to shop and sellers to sell.
Team members in this role are required to be within commuting distance of our New York, NY, San Francisco, CA, or Los Angeles, CA hubs.
