About the role
We are hiring a Senior Design Manager to lead a pod within our design organization, owning both the craft quality and the business outcomes of the work shipped by their team.

- Business Outcomes: Own the impact of your team’s work on conversion, engagement, and revenue metrics. Partner with growth and analytics to connect design decisions to measur
