Anne Birzin | Staff Product Designer & Manager
Hi, I’m Anne. I design thoughtful product experiences that power modern businesses.
For the past 15 years, I’ve been designing and leading teams to create product experiences that help businesses scale with clarity. I love aligning user needs with business goals and crafting systems that feel both powerful and intuitive.
What I Bring
Enterprise UX & Craft
I design enterprise UX that brings clarity to complex, data-intensive workflows through scalable design systems, polished execution, and AI-driven workflows.
Leadership & Collaboration
I lead as a player–coach, staying hands-on with design while mentoring teammates and evolving design practices. My strength lies in being a high-impact IC who partners across disciplines to tackle messy problems and set clear direction.
Impact & Outcomes
I define success through metrics. By working with product and data partners, I ensure UX improvements are measurable, performance-driven, and tied directly to business impact.
