The Director, Product Design will lead design teams, drive innovation, and create cohesive user experiences for Chewy Health, focusing on pet health solutions.
Job Description:
Our Opportunity
At Chewy, we strive to be the most trusted and convenient online destination for pet parents and our partners - vets and service providers - alike. Our success is measured by the happiness of the people and pets we serve, not simply by the amount of pet supplies we deliver. That's why we continue to think outside the Chewy box to delight, surprise, and thank our loyal pet lovers!
Within our Product Design & Research team, we bring that mission to life by crafting experiences that delight customers and support the businesses and veterinarians who care for pets. We're a team of passionate designers, researchers, and builders who care deeply about our craft-and about pets. We're looking for creative, driven talent to join us and help shape the future of pet care.
You will be a Director, Product Design, leading design within Chewy Health, based in either our Bellevue, WA or Boston, MA offices. This is a high-impact, leadership role guiding the teams designing an integrated suite of services enabling seamless, omni-channel experiences for pet parents, veterinarians, and pharmacists across the full care journey.
You will reinvent how pet care is delivered - designing customer first experiences spanning including physical practices, telemedicine and triage, and prescriptions. Capabilities include: scheduling and managing appointments; in-clinic and virtual interactions with veterinarians and staff; payments and service workflows; medication fulfillment; and post-visit care. This role is ideal for a design leader who thrives in complex, regulated environments and is passionate about bringing consumer-grade experiences to professional and B2B users.
