While Jacob worked with me he drove our recruiting efforts leading to accelerated team growth and fantastic hiring success. He founded and led our design system, and was a strong advocate for its value and impact within the organization. He managed designers at multiple levels as an empathetic and supportive leader, focused on his direct reports successes. Jacob was always willing to get hands on with design solutions for complex user and product challenges anytime the opportunity or need presented it’s self. His designs are well researched, thought out, and based on deep experience and knowledge of successful product experiences and he was always keen to bring inspiration, learning, and new technologies into his role and team.
