What you’ll do
Product and user experience

- Define and improve the user experience across all other digital products and internal tools
Content systems and data management

- Build and maintain standards for how content data is entered, tagged, categorized, and maintained across the catalog
- Work with sales, marketing, and distribution to make sure the CMS serves their needs and the data they depend on is reliable

- Maintain design templates and asset libraries so teams can move faster without sacrificing quality

- Experience building creative asset management systems: archiving, tagging, organization at scale
