MARENA MITCHELL
NYC • Senior product designer (& professional vibe coder)
LinkedIn
Product designer with five years shaping an AI-powered enterprise platform from early startup to $10M ARR as the sole and founding designer. I work across web, mobile, and tablet, ship my own code, and pioneer AI-forward design workflows that have changed how my team collaborates across design, product, and engineering.
I care about user-centered, practical design. I care equally about building trust and culture within a team so that work, especially when it gets sticky, is easier.
Currently at Proton, designing for wholesale distribution, an industry where the software bar is low and the stakes are high. Interested in simplifying the complex, beautifying the ugly, and delivering features that users love.
When I’m off the clock, I’m usually doing couch-friendly activities (reading, knitting, jigsaw puzzles, whatever Switch game I'm into), yoga, traveling, and hunting for treasure at the local flea market.
