UX Designer - AWS Database Migration Service
East Palo Alto, CA
Job Description
Do you want to be self-directed? Do you strive to continuously improve your skills at something that matters? Do you yearn to contribute to something larger than yourself? We started in a garage, but we're not there anymore. Success and scale bring broad responsibility.
We want our customers to be productive and efficient, whether they are beginners, generalists, or experts. Mistakes are part of learning, but we adjust quickly and tackle risks upfront. We strive to acquire deeper knowledge of (1) our customers, (2) our data, (3) our business and stakeholders, and (4) our industry.
Your work will impact the customer experience of AWS Database Migration Service which helps AWS customers to migrate databases to AWS quickly and securely. Customers can begin a database migration with just a few clicks in the AWS Management Console. Once the migration has started, DMS manages all the complexities of the migration process including automatically replicating data changes that occur in the source database during the migration process.
Join a productive, high performing and diverse environment. Are you ready for what's next?

Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazon's culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 16 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust. Our team has members of multiple genders, races, and ethnicities and welcomes diversified ways of thinking and non-traditional approaches to UX design.
Work/Life Balance
Our team puts a high value on work-life balance. It isn't about how many hours you spend at home or at work; it's about the flow you establish that brings energy to both parts of your life.

We offer flexibility in working hours and encourage you to find your own balance between your work and personal lives. We leverage modern collaboration tools and processes to reduce overhead, streamline communication and increase productivity.
