The McDonald's Global Experience Design team is a key part of the Customer Experience team (MCX), which provides user-centered experiences that deliver a cohesive and significant experience for customers and restaurant team members around the world.

  • You champion ongoing improvements by considering market analysis, customer feedback, metrics, and usability findings.
  • You will partner closely with product management and engineering teams to drive innovation and push the boundaries of what’s possible.
  • You actively drive the design review cycle and close on design requirements.
  • You effectively lead collaboration across teams; not just gathering business requirements but supporting in defining them.
  • You have experience applying Accessibility best practices (WCAG).
Qualifications:
  • 5+ years of experience in user-centered experience design, with a focus on commerce.
  • Experience working with UX researchers and acting on the research analysis in their design work.
  • You have a portfolio that demonstrates creative design thinking with an understanding of Human Centered Design.
  • You are a design thinker who looks holistically for solutions that span the entire customer journey.
  • You understand and can speak to the importance of having familiarity with technical considerations needed across the various platforms we’re designing for.
  • You have excellent communication and presentation skills.
  • You are passionate about learning new and emerging design trends.
  • Bachelor's degree in design, human-computer interaction (HCI), or equivalent professional experience.
