At The Home Depot, exceptional design is at the heart of how we inspire customers, simplify decisions, and create meaningful digital experiences. As a Senior UX Principal within our Online team, you will help define and shape the future of our online customer journey, leading large-scale experience initiatives that blend strategic vision, customer insight, and outstanding visual design execution.
This role is ideal for a design leader who is equally comfortable thinking years ahead and bringing ideas to life through polished, customer-centered design. You possess exceptional visual design craft, a strong portfolio demonstrating end-to-end UX thinking, and a passion for creating intuitive, engaging experiences that help customers discover, explore, and confidently move toward purchase.
As a senior member/leader of the Online UX organization, you will lead the design vision across critical customer-facing experiences, partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Research, Content Design, and business stakeholders to identify opportunities, validate concepts, and deliver innovative solutions. You can move fluidly between ambiguity and execution, using research, data, prototyping, and design exploration to shape future-state experiences while influencing current product strategy.
You have deep expertise in visual design, interaction design, information hierarchy, and modern design systems. You understand how thoughtful design can inspire customers, strengthen brand affinity, and drive business outcomes. You are highly skilled in communicating ideas visually, developing compelling concepts, and elevating the overall quality and consistency of experiences across multiple teams and product areas.
The ideal candidate is a hands-on design leader who thrives in collaborative environments, welcomes feedback, and mentors other designers through both strategic guidance and demonstrated craft excellence. You are comfortable taking informed risks, working through ambiguity, and championing a clear point of view while balancing customer needs, business goals, and technical constraints.
