About the role
The Senior Designer is responsible for owning and shaping the end-to-end customer experience for two brands, ensuring a cohesive and effective journey across discovery, browsing, product evaluation, purchase, and post-purchase engagement. Serving as a trusted strategic partner to brand leadership, merchandising, and creative teams, the individual will help define problems, guide decision-making, and advocate for customer needs while balancing business objectives, brand differentiation, and experience consistency. Working closely with product management, engineering, and fellow design leaders, the role will drive high-impact initiatives across multiple value streams and contribute to decisions on shared and brand-specific experiences within the design system framework. As a hands-on design practitioner, the successful candidate will lead design, prototyping, testing, and delivery efforts while leveraging AI-enabled tools to accelerate innovation, generate insights, and deliver measurable business and customer outcomes with speed, quality, and sound professional judgment.
- Lead design for two of our brands across their end-to-end customer journeys. Own the highest-leverage journeys yourself and keep your brands current on everything else
- Be the primary design partner to brand leadership. Build the relationships that get design into the conversation early, and be a thought partner in framing the problem rather than only in delivering the solution
- Work with the other brand journey leads to decide what is shared across brands and what stays brand-distinct, inside the design system’s framework
- Partner with Product Management and Engineering in the value streams through ideation, conceptualization, planning, and delivery. Drive the work when an initiative spans value streams for your brands
- Design the work. Carry your brands’ most important journeys from problem framing through to launch
- Run continuous discovery. Interview customers, build prototypes, and test with real people so that concepts are validated before build
- Balance scope, business impact, fidelity, and delivery speed, and say plainly when a trade-off has consequences for the customer
- Bring an evidenced point of view. Partner with UX Research on what gets studied, and use data and research to make and defend design decisions
- Design within the design system and contribute patterns back to it. Know when a brand-distinct choice is warranted and make the case for it
- Design for accessibility, trust, and compliance from the start rather than as a check at the end
- Present to varied audiences and facilitate with senior stakeholders. Articulate insights and the reasoning behind design decisions, manage expectations, and bring partners with different views to alignment
- Think across channels. Connect digital, store, and emerging channel experiences into coherent journeys, and apply service design methods where journeys cross system and organizational boundaries
- Follow your work through to its result. Connect what shipped to conversion, engagement, and retention, and use the outcome to decide what comes next
- Use AI to move faster on exploration, synthesis, and production, and be clear about where it helped and where it did not
- Mentor designers earlier in their career, share what you learn, and help raise the craft of the team
Who you are
- Substantial experience designing consumer-facing digital commerce experiences, with a portfolio that shows end-to-end journey thinking rather than a collection of screens
- An established practitioner with subject matter expertise in your craft: interaction design, information architecture, prototyping, and visual execution
- Experienced as the design partner to brand, marketing, merchandising, or creative stakeholders. You can hold a point of view with senior partners and build trust with people who did not ask for a designer in the room
- Comfortable working inside a product operating model, partnering with Product Management and Engineering rather than receiving requirements from them
- A clear perspective on brand-differentiated design within a shared platform. You can say when consistency serves the customer and when brand expression must take priority
- Fluent in research methods. You know which question needs which method, you can run the lightweight ones yourself, and you know when to bring in a researcher
- A systems thinker drawn to journeys rather than screens. You are interested in service design and experience strategy, and you can see how a decision in one journey stage lands in another
- Data-informed. You can connect a design decision to a metric, and you follow up to see what actually happened
- Hands-on and fast. You are energized by velocity and you use AI to get to evidence sooner without lowering the bar
- A clear communicator. You explain the reasoning behind your point of view, and you change it when the evidence says so
- Collaborative and candid. You give and receive direct feedback well, and you make the people around you better
- Ready for more scope than you have held before, and open to coaching. This role stretches beyond a typical senior designer remit, and you will have an experienced brand journey lead alongside you as you grow into it
- Comfortable with ambiguity, with more than one brand in play, and with work that is delivered alongside partner teams
Salary Range: $145,100.00 - $188,600.00
Employee pay will vary based on factors such as qualifications, experience, skill level, competencies and work location. We will meet minimum wage or minimum of the pay range (whichever is higher) based on city, county and state requirements.
Benefits at Gap Inc.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Product Designer
Align your portfolio to specialty occupation standards
USCIS requires your role to demand a bachelor's degree in a directly related field. Frame each portfolio case study around specific design methodologies, interaction design, usability research, design systems, not general creative output that a non-degreed candidate could produce.
Verify your degree equivalency before applying
Chilean licentiate degrees are generally accepted as equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's, but your employer's attorney may request a credential evaluation. Get a certified evaluation from a NACES-member organization before the offer stage, not after.
Target employers already filing LCAs for design roles
Use the OFLC Wage Search to filter certified Labor Condition Applications by job title and state. Employers with recent LCA history for product designer or UX designer roles have already cleared DOL's prevailing-wage process and understand H-1B1 Chile sponsorship requirements.
Search H-1B1 Chile jobs using Migrate Mate
Migrate Mate filters job listings by verified LCA filing history, so you see only employers who have actively sponsored work visas. Search specifically for product designer roles to avoid wasting applications on companies unfamiliar with H-1B1 Chile sponsorship.
Negotiate the LCA filing into your offer timeline
The employer must file and receive a certified LCA from DOL before your consular appointment. DOL certifies most LCAs within seven business days. Confirm your prospective employer knows this step precedes your visa interview so your start date isn't delayed.
Prepare for consular nonimmigrant intent questions
Unlike H-1B visa, the H-1B1 Chile visa does not permit dual intent. Consular officers will assess your ties to Chile. Bring evidence of ongoing connections, property, family, professional registrations, alongside your job offer letter and certified LCA.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a product designer role qualify as a specialty occupation for the H-1B1 Chile visa?
Yes, provided the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field such as interaction design, industrial design, or human-computer interaction. Roles where any bachelor's degree is acceptable regardless of field generally do not qualify. The O*NET profile for product designers lists Job Zone 4, which supports the specialty occupation argument. Your employer confirms the degree requirement in the LCA.
How does the H-1B1 Chile visa compare to H-1B for product designers?
H-1B1 Chile has no lottery and the 1,400-visa annual cap has never been exhausted, so a qualifying Chilean product designer with a job offer can apply without competing in a randomized selection. The trade-off is that H-1B1 Chile does not allow dual intent, meaning you cannot simultaneously pursue a green card. H-1B holders can file an immigrant petition while maintaining status; H-1B1 Chile holders cannot.
How do I find product designer jobs with H-1B1 Chile visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate shows product designer roles filtered by verified DOL Labor Condition Application filing history, so you can identify employers who have already navigated the H-1B1 Chile sponsorship process. Applying to companies with LCA history for design roles significantly shortens the timeline from offer to consular appointment, since those employers understand the requirements.
Can I switch product designer employers while on an H-1B1 Chile visa?
Yes, but you must restart the process with each new employer. There is no H-1B1 Chile portability equivalent to the AC21 rule that H-1B holders use. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA with DOL, and you will typically need to attend a new consular appointment in Chile. Plan your transition timeline accordingly, especially if your current H-1B1 Chile status is near its two-year validity period.
What documents does a product designer need for the H-1B1 Chile consular interview?
You will need a certified LCA from DOL, an offer letter that specifies your job title and confirms a bachelor's degree is required, your academic credentials and any credential evaluation, a completed DS-160, and evidence of Chilean citizenship. Because H-1B1 Chile requires demonstrating nonimmigrant intent, bring documentation of ties to Chile such as family records, property ownership, or professional registrations.
