Our Disciplines ⬪ Open Roles ⬪ Hiring Process ⬪ Working Here
Product Design is the practice of identifying and iteratively solving digital interface problems. As product designers, we work cross-functionally with product managers, engineers, UX writers, and UX researchers to devise solutions that respond to user needs while working within technical constraints and toward business goals.
Some projects we’ve worked on include reimagining ways of listening to audio in the New Yorker app, streamlining the editorial process of selecting content headers when publishing content in Copilot (our internal publishing tool), crafting ways to showcase branded content for our advertising partners across our sites, and launching a commerce hub for Vogue readers to shop the latest editor recommendations.
The job of user research is to be more certain. User researchers define problem spaces, gather context, determine design directions, compile information, and mitigate risk. We’re here to help everyone make more informed decisions.
The Condé Nast User Research team provides a holistic understanding of our audiences and users on behalf of our design, product, and editorial colleagues. User research employs human-centered design methods like interviews and usability studies to build on the organization’s collective knowledge of our audiences and users and provide actionable insights and recommendations.
UX Content Design is the practice of designing with words. We work closely with designers, UX researchers, and cross-functional partners to craft useful language that guides users through digital experiences. Our work can be seen on-screen in the form of product names and terminology, onboarding, and microcopy, though much of it takes place below the surface during the discovery and definition phases of design: sketching with words, identifying voice and tone, channel mapping, and more.
Projects range from testing a single word to building systems of language with dozens of iterations. On the team, you might find yourself leading the creation of Vogue's new membership program or helping build The New Yorker's first Android app.
Design Operations is the orchestration and optimization of people, processes, and tools in order to amplify design’s value and impact at scale. Our mission is to maximize the time that our global team of designers can spend designing by making sure they have the right tools, structures, and opportunities in place to thrive and to grow.
In our day-to-day, DesignOps means handling things like software administration, hiring, onboarding, facilitating team culture, creating and maintaining documentation, communicating and leading through change, collaborating with partners in HR, Finance, and other functions, and bringing clarity wherever there’s ambiguity.
