A day in the life
The Amazon IT UX team is highly collaborative. We each have ownership over individual projects, but build mechanisms to stay closely engaged. A typical day might look like:

* Attend a mid-day meeting to share ideas for a new customer experience as part of the team's Design Critique and then engage your project's Core Team in exploring a competitive design or wallowing through a data dashboard.
* Have lunch with the team-- a local Vietnamese street food restaurant is a team favorite. But Fridays are no-meeting "Team Days" where we rotate who picks our work location and lunch spot, so you never know.
* Take an afternoon meeting with a mentor or 1:1 with a team mate.
* Round out the day with a Design Jam whiteboarding session to help a teammate ideate solutions for an emerging need.

* Inclusion: We are in the unique position of supporting a truly global audience. Travel is not required for the role, but we value cross-cultural connections and encourage it for people that are comfortable traveling.
* Balance: Designers do their best work when they have flexibility in how they approach it. We switch work locations once a week, we don't just talk about work-life balance, and we're flexible with times of day.
