# Candice Juan Cai

> Senior designer at Microsoft

Location: Seattle, Washington, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/candicejuancai

Goal-oriented interaction designer specializing in AI-powered productivity and workplace experience design, design strategy, and product thinking. I bring experience across the full product lifecycle from early discovery and 0-to-1 product creation to rapid, insight-driven iteration. I thrive in ambiguity, transforming complex systems into intuitive, scalable solutions.

I have deep expertise designing AI-driven office and productivity experiences, including intelligent workflows, multimodal interaction models, and integrated cross-app ecosystems that enhance communication, creativity, and decision-making. I’ve led initiatives in low-maturity environments as a strategic advocate, and contributed within established product organizations balancing stakeholder needs, technical constraints, and business impact.

Driven by bridging human experience with business value, I aim to create accessible, socially meaningful design with measurable outcomes.

Always open to thoughtful conversations and collaboration.
