This cross-functional, high-performing team serves as a center of excellence for the company and includes experts across experience design, strategic content, experiential learning, event production, experiential marketing, and more.

As a company that is both customer-centric and values-driven, we need to be connected to our culture and employees in order to come out of this stronger than ever. And what is why at the core, shared experiences are key to keeping the culture together.
We are looking for a design strategist to co-create world-class programs that relate to galvanizing Intuit's developers around our vision and strategy and influencing our technology culture. This role will influence our ability to build a strong engineering culture year round, help attract top talent, and influence our innovative tech forward reputation.

Experience / what you bring to the table
+ At least 5-8 years in design-thinking or design research field, game design, improv and communication, learning & development, education, organizational behavior or other related/interdisciplinary fields

How you will lead
Focus areas

+ Create a conference experience where our engineers interact to get meaningful value out of it
+ Design, test and define broad-reaching immersive experiences like (but not limited to) immersive videos, interactive games, hands-on activities, provocations, workshops, panel interviews.
