Job update: I’ve joined Pinterest! I’ll be going back to my marketplace roots to lead and grow a new team called Shoppers. It’s a big part of making Pinterest be the visual inspiration platform where people come to search, save, and shop the best ideas in the world for all of life’s moments. The Pinterest team knocked my socks off with their high craft, ambition, and leadership style. I am honored to be working with Mira, Erika, Jasmine, Ophelia, Steven, Jason (again!), Camden (again!!), Matt (again!!!), Lise, Daniel, Xiang and so many more. Pinterest puts so much goodness into the world, through things like Body Type Ranges, trend reports, teen safety, in addition to just being a positive corner of the internet. I can’t wait to be a part of that. If you haven’t caught up with what Pinterest is up to in a while, check out our updates: https://lnkd.in/g5C36pmd I want to add that the job market is rough out there right now. If you’re reading this and you’re in the middle of a job search or considering leaving your role, I’m happy to help with advice or a portfolio dry run. My DMs are open. Onward!

This is the most recent installment in a series of design leadership interviews at DoorDash, and my first Medium article! I couldn't think of a better topic than my colleague Cameron Wu. Swoon alert: Cameron is one of the most inspiring design leaders I've worked with. He's principled, creative, business savvy, and beloved by his team. Here's one quote that stood out to me: "I’ve worked with phenomenal designers throughout my career who had a diversity of backgrounds and experiences, most of which came from lesser-known companies. Great work happens everywhere. I think what makes designers successful is developing the right set of traits: having a growth mindset, embracing collaboration, becoming a good storyteller." Oh yeah, and he's hiring! A link to his job posting is at the end of his article. #leadership #design #hiring #productdesign #uxdesign #doordash

It's my pleasure to interview Blake Engel, our Head of Dasher Design, who recently joined DoorDash!

He's also hiring - join his awesome team! https://lnkd.in/ggHTjFb #leadership #design #hiring #productdesign #uxdesign #doordash

Today I'm joining DoorDash as the Head of Dasher Design! During my time at Uber I loved applying the human values of product design to multi-sided marketplaces, and am excited to continue practicing it for the US market leader in local delivery. Plus I'm excited to work again with Jason, Gerardo, Gina, Albert and for the first time with the illustrious Helena Seo, Ashmita Vishwanathan, Jaydev Ajit Kumar, Sam Lind, and countless more. Go for it! (Oh, and we are hiring designers, design technologists, UX researchers, content strategists, product managers/leads, and so much more. I'd love to work with you here!)

Uber Freight is doing some of the most exciting product design work I’ve ever seen in my career. And now we are also doing it in Chicago. Do you know a great product designer who should join our team? https://lnkd.in/gifMABn
Chicago has become my second home away from home over the past decade. The people, their hard work, the spirit of this place, I fell in love with this city. Which is what makes today so much more special for me, as well as Uber and this great city. I had the honor of sharing the news today alongside Dara, Mayor Lightfoot and Lt. Governor Stratton that Uber Freight will bring 2000 new jobs to Chicago over the next 3 years, with an annual investment of $200M/year over the next decade, making it one of the biggest tech employers in the city. The beautiful old post office will become our Uber Freight HQ, where we will also open our first technology hub outside of San Francisco and create a place that is reimagining logistics in the United State and globally, together with our partners. Couldn't be more excited for the future of Uber Freight and Chicago. We are hiring across the board https://lnkd.in/ghmws9z if you want to join the journey, we're just getting started. https://lnkd.in/gxvdATm
Uber makes a huge bet on Chicago
