OVERVIEW

As the Senior UX Designer at Amazon, I led the creation of a comprehensive design system for the company’s career site. With the goal of enhancing consistency, usability, and scalability, this system was built to support over 1,400 pages—each tailored to meet the needs of a diverse global audience exploring career opportunities at Amazon.
