Amazon is looking for a Senior UX Writer with exceptional skill for crafting simple, straightforward, and conversational copy that makes even the most complex concepts intuitive and easy to understand.
As a Sr. UX Writer on the team, you'll help create experiences that allow advertisers of all sizes to effectively promote their brands, products and services on Amazon and beyond. In this role, you'll partner with product management, UX designers, researchers, and our technical teams to define powerful user experiences that help brands and agencies to understand how to leverage Amazon's unique position in the market to their advantage. You'll define and create standards, patterns, and mechanisms to elevate all of our written content to be crisp, clear, and transparent-whether you're creating user interface text, tips, notifications, or insights.

You're obsessed with understanding the nuances of how our customers think, and you fiercely advocate on their behalf for the best possible solutions. You strive to ensure that customers have the right information-presented in perfect harmony with the visual and interactive design elements of the UX. You quickly gain expertise in the products and services to which you provide content, using them with the mindset of the customer. You proactively gather data to inform your decisions, and demonstrate sound judgement when faced with ambiguity. You identify opportunities and risks, escalate effectively, and ensure resolution.
