Zarni Ko
Interaction Design / Service Design / Software Design / Digital Product Design
Multi-disciplinary Design leader who focuses on software and digital product design. Currently working at Jane Street in NYC supporting complex research & trading software development efforts.
With over a decade of diverse experience spanning corporate giants like Meta Platforms, Raytheon Technologies, Squarespace, and Uber, coupled with consulting engagements at respectable firms like AKQA and R/GA, I am a seasoned Product Designer known for driving impactful design solutions. From leading Interaction and Product Design teams to spearheading projects, my expertise lies in crafting seamless user experiences across digital platforms and physical spaces. With a foundation in Industrial Design complemented by an MFA in Design Management, I bring a unique blend of creative vision and strategic acumen to every project. Passionate about mentorship and talent development, I've nurtured design teams and facilitated career growth while delivering innovative solutions that resonate with users and drive business success.
When I am not working on commercial things, I find joy in taking care of my cats, plants, eating ramen and making random art objects.
