Hybrid Designer
Reporting to a specific location where work needs to be performed / collaboration should happen (regardless this location is within a hub) and without regard to where a candidate lives (some employees may end up hybrid who live more than 50 miles away but where business needs dictate them to be onsite at a specific location three days per week).
This role is categorized as hybrid. This means the successful candidate is expected to report to Warren GM Global Technical Center three times per week, at minimum. This job is eligible for relocation benefits.
