Who you will work with

You'll be part of the Digital Product Design Studio.

You blend aesthetic sensibility with technical skills – achieving interactive and technical breakthroughs while inspiring others through your vision and collaboration. You bring a wide array of expertise and a lot of curiosity. You have experience leading projects, guiding teams, and as a leader, you know how to mentor fellow creative technologists, designers and collaborators.

• Able to clearly articulate vision and strategy to leadership

• Ability to communicate effectively with non technical stakeholders

• Passion for the Nike brand, sports and for creating high-quality work

• A lasting fascination with innovation, technology, digital tools and trends

What you will work on

You'll create innovative web and mobile app experiences that deliver Nike's vision to “make athlete dreams real”. You'll work within the Design Studio team to collaborate on defining and implementing Nike's UX language, and you'll work with cross-functional partners across Nike on “big bets” – the digital experiences and expressions that position Nike at the forefront of inspiration and innovation.

• Design and implement the look and feel of delightful Nike product experiences, features, user interactions and affordances

• Create high quality design proposals and drive projects from concept through iterations and to implementation.

• Work on projects that encompass multiple broad and/or undefined features

• Ability to fuse creativity and code to deliver cutting edge interactive artifacts
