About the Role

Concord is seeking a Senior UX Designer to support a large-scale, consumer-facing retail platform engagement. This is a strategic and hands-on leadership role focused on owning the UX roadmap for a major brand within a complex, multi-brand ecosystem.

This role is not an individual contributor-only position. We are looking for someone who can lead UX strategy, manage and prioritize a UX backlog, support and unblock designers, and partner closely with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to ensure UX work is aligned to organizational goals and delivered effectively within Agile teams.

As a consultancy, Concord values collaboration, clarity, and trust. You will work closely with cross-functional Concord teams and client stakeholders, reporting into UX leadership and supporting high-level UX vision while translating it into actionable, prioritized work for designers.

What You Will Be Doing

UX Strategy:

• Manage the UX roadmap and backlog for a designated brand within a multi-brand environment.
• Translate organizational and product roadmaps into a clear, prioritized UX backlog with well-defined stories.
• Ensure UX work is aligned with business goals, user needs, and technical constraints.
• Support designers throughout sprint execution by providing context, clarifying requirements, and removing blockers.
• Conduct design reviews, retrospectives, and ongoing feedback sessions.

Cross-Functional Collaboration:

• Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Analytics, and other internal teams to gather context and requirements.
• Act as a bridge between UX designers and stakeholders to ensure clarity, alignment, and momentum.
• Confidently communicate UX priorities, tradeoffs, and decisions to leadership and delivery teams.

Research, Design, and Optimization:

• Periodically jump into Figma to support designers directly when needed (concepts, flows, refinements).
• Ensure consistency with existing design systems while evolving patterns as needed.
• Leverage UX research and A/B testing to inform design decisions and validate outcomes.
• Use data, experimentation, and user insights to continuously improve experiences.

What We Are Looking For

• 5–10 years of UX/Product Design experience.
• Proven experience managing UX backlogs, prioritization, and roadmaps in Agile environments. Hands-on experience with Jira, Confluence, and Agile delivery frameworks.
• Experience mentoring and leading designers within sprint-based teams.
• Strong background in e-commerce UX (B2C and B2B), with case studies to demonstrate impact.
• Deep familiarity with Figma and modern web and mobile design systems.
• Experience with UX research methods and A/B testing.
• Strong ability to synthesize insights and translate them into actionable design direction.
• Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
• Ability to present UX strategy, priorities, and design rationale to both designers and non-design stakeholders.
• Comfortable working closely with leadership while executing tactically with delivery teams.
• Advanced to Bilingual English proficiency (C1 or C2 level).

Additional Information

• Duration: 6-12 months contract. The possibility of renewal depends on performance and business needs.

• Targeted Start: immediately.
• Location: Remote, Latin America. Preferred locations include Peru, Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Colombia.
