Through detailed market and user research, you’ll explore, ideate, validate, and build products that support both our user and business needs. We are looking for someone who can work closely with engineering and product partners while coordinating and strategizing with many product teams across Etsy.
This is a full-time position reporting to the Product Design Manager. For this role, we are considering candidates based in United States who are either remote, flex, or office-based.

WHAT’S PRODUCT DESIGN LIKE AT ETSY?
Typically, product designers at Etsy work in a squad with a product manager, 3-5 engineers, researcher and analyst. Together they drive their own part of Etsy, deliver solutions to challenging problems and get feedback directly from customers.
WHAT DOES THE DAY-TO-DAY LOOK LIKE?
Discovering insights, opportunities, and requirements
Testing prototypes and hypotheses with users to collect feedback
Launching experiments and evaluating how they perform and how to iterate
Presenting your work to peers and leadership, async and in-person
Taking part in weekly design critiques, workshops, all hands and squad meetings
Thinking and writing about your process and documenting your decisions
Of course, this is just a sample of the kinds of work this role will require! You should assume that your role will encompass other tasks, too, and that your job duties and responsibilities may change from time to time at Etsy's discretion, or otherwise applicable with local law.
