Major League Baseball is on a multi-year mission to reimagine the fan experience. We believe the opportunity ahead of us requires skills in understanding people, thoughtful consideration of every aspect of the fan experience, and cranking up delight for every touchpoint—in short, design. That’s where you come in -- We are looking for designers to join the effort to help make this happen.
The Design team at MLB works across the entire fan journey - from primary research with the fans and clubs, brand creative, in-park experiences, websites, apps, games, streaming and interactive products. We take pride in designing delightful fan focused experiences that enhance the sport. Paying attention to the trends shaping sports and media, while constantly raising the bar on entertainment and delight for every aspect of the MLB experience. We do this through the practice of a fan focused approach to product design, investing in design systems and content tooling, UX writing, and design research
We’re looking for a Principal Product Designer who will build out and maintain individual games as well as the Predictive Gaming Platform for MLB. The expectations of our fans are high and so we are committed to go to extraordinary lengths to produce world-class work that exceeds their expectation - you will be working in a place where design is highly valued.
This role will lead Product Design for our Predictive Gaming Platform. Games including MLB Beat the Streak, MLB Quick Pick and in-development titles make this Platform engaging for all types of MLB fans.
Although we all focus on specific areas the boundaries between teams are permeable, so you can certainly expect to collaborate with other designers on a broad set of design challenges that don’t fall neatly into the Predictive Gaming Platform category.
Please have prepared
