Job description

A logo, a launch, a look that outlives the campaign: that's the legacy Ross Stores is asking its next UX Designer to chase in Olympia, WA. Boiled down: freelance, $65,000 - $95,000, 4 years of Interaction Design, and a seat at the table where Ross Stores decisions get made.

Key Responsibilities

• Map where Layout Design and A/B Testing overlap, then live in that messy middle
• Contribute to and help evolve Ross Stores's design system and component library
• Knead a clumsy stock photo into something that feels shot for Ross Stores
• Maintain organized source files, asset libraries, and version histories
• Reframe a tired product story until mid-level stakeholders lean forward again

What You'll Bring

• Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
• The judgment to distinguish a fire drill from an actual fire
• Comfort with a Ross Stores pace that rarely sits still
• 5 years that taught you which corners can be cut

Ross Stores was founded on a hunch that creative could be far less awful, and Olympia turned out to be the perfect place to prove it. We assume good intent first and ask clarifying questions second, which keeps the performance-driven days drama-free.

We provide $65,000 - $95,000, a wellness budget, retirement matching, and clear milestones for moving up to the next mid-level.
