Senior Product Designer, Bring a Trailer (Remote)

Job Description

Why Hearst Autos?

Bring a Trailer is a part of Hearst Magazines. BaT Auctions are the best way to buy and sell classic, collector, and enthusiast vehicles. We curate vehicles submitted by our audience and craft transparent auction listings that present the vehicles as they are—without superlatives or dubious used-car-lot language. BaT's ever-growing community of knowledgeable users vets each listing so potential buyers can bid with confidence.

Your Impact

BaT continues to grow, and we are looking for a Senior Product Designer who is excited about personalization and the future direction of ML and AI! Our ideal candidate is experienced in product design initiatives, building design systems, and collaborating with product, engineering, and business folks to find elegant and practical solutions for user needs and business challenges. Interest in automotive culture and enthusiasm for the kind of vehicles featured daily on BaT is a huge plus!
