Quince is a manufacturer-to-consumer (M2C) fashion and accessories brand on a mission to deliver high-quality essentials at low prices, fairly and sustainably. The company has grown from elevated basics into a cross-category brand spanning apparel, accessories, and home goods, serving tens of millions of customers globally.
You will join as a Staff UX Designer, a senior individual contributor role reporting to the Design Director. This is a hands-on position for a designer who can lead complex product initiatives from strategy through execution, establish strong UX direction, and mentor other designers to raise the quality of product design across the team.
Key responsibilities include:
- Lead end-to-end UX for high-impact, complex product initiatives, from problem definition and experience strategy through detailed design, testing, iteration, and launch
- Champion an app-first design mentality, identifying how native mobile behaviors, interaction patterns, and capabilities can create better experiences rather than simply adapting web patterns
- Shape core e-commerce experiences across discovery, browsing, product detail pages, cart, checkout, account, order management, and post-purchase
- Establish strong UX direction for areas of ownership, connecting individual features into cohesive end-to-end customer experiences
- Partner closely with Product and Engineering to influence product strategy, prioritization, and roadmaps early in the process
- Work within and help evolve the design system, identifying opportunities to improve and extend components, patterns, and interaction standards across app and web
- Collaborate with designers and engineers on design system implementation, ensuring components are scalable, flexible, and thoughtfully applied across platforms
- Partner with Product and Analytics on experimentation and A/B testing, translating learnings into meaningful improvements to UX, engagement, and conversion
- Use research, customer insights, behavioral data, and design judgment to identify opportunities and inform product decisions
- Bring strong interaction design thinking to the product, including micro-interactions, motion, transitions, and native app behaviors
- Maintain high visual craft and attention to detail, creating polished, intuitive experiences consistent with the Quince brand
- Provide mentorship and high-quality feedback to other designers, helping raise team standards
- Communicate design rationale and recommendations effectively to cross-functional partners and senior leadership
Quince operates with a builder's culture that questions conventional thinking, uses technology and data to uncover opportunities, and moves quickly. The company values challenging assumptions, moving at a fast pace with high standards, and distributing responsibility across all team members regardless of level.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 7+ years of product design experience, ideally with e-commerce, marketplace, or consumer-facing digital products
- Deep experience designing native mobile products for iOS and Android, with strong understanding of mobile interaction patterns, platform conventions, and how app experiences should differ from responsive web
- Strong app-first product mindset and demonstrated experience identifying opportunities to use native mobile capabilities to create more useful and engaging customer experiences
- Experience leading complex, high-impact product initiatives with significant autonomy, from early problem definition through launch and iteration
- Significant experience working with and contributing to mature design systems, including evolving existing patterns and introducing scalable new ones
- Advanced proficiency in Figma, including components, variants, libraries, variables, prototyping, and scalable design practices
- Experience collaborating closely with Engineering on design system implementation, including component behavior, states, responsiveness, platform considerations, and consistency
- Deep understanding of end-to-end customer journeys and ability to think beyond individual screens or features
- Strong understanding of core e-commerce experiences, including discovery, shopping, cart, checkout, account, and post-purchase
- Experience using research, usability testing, experimentation, and quantitative data to inform and validate design decisions
- Strong interaction design skills and thoughtfulness around micro-interactions, motion, and native app behaviors
- Strong attention to detail and visual judgment, with ability to create polished experiences aligned with established brand
- Curiosity and strong point of view on AI and emerging design tools, including how they can improve exploration, efficiency, prototyping, and the broader design process
- Excellent communication and storytelling skills, with ability to articulate clear point of view, navigate tradeoffs, and influence cross-functional partners
- Experience mentoring other designers and helping elevate quality of broader design team
