# Jerry L. > Principal UX Designer, AI Product Designer, UX Leadership Location: San Jose, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/jerryl1 I'm a Principal Product Designer working on AI-native systems, including LLM classification, agent workflows, and automation tools that help scale human decision-making. I enjoy high-ambiguity problems and figuring things out from scratch, turning unclear ideas into clear, usable product systems. I move between IC work and leadership, from detailed design execution to shaping product direction with teams. My focus is building simple, scalable systems that connect users, product thinking, and technical constraints. -- End-to-End Product Design -- Complex workflow design • Information architecture • Interaction design • Prototyping • Usability testing • Accessibility -- AI & Data-Driven Systems -- Human-in-the-loop UX • LLM-assisted workflows • Semantic search • Classification systems • Analytics dashboards •Anomaly Detection -- Systems & Scale -- Design systems • Component libraries • Data-dense interfaces • Cross-functional collaboration • Agile product environments Tools: Figma, Tableau, D3/C3, HTML/CSS, Balsamiq, Adobe Suite, ChatGPT/Claude ## Work Experience ### Principal AX Product Design Lead / UX Strategist @ RecallSeeker.com Jan 2024 – Present | Cupertino, CA • Designed multi-stage AI-assisted classification workflows transforming unstructured regulatory data into a structured, multi-level product taxonomy. • Built human-in-the-loop validation systems that route low-confidence classifications to expert review, significantly reducing manual workload. • Designed semantic search and recommendation experiences improving recall discovery speed and relevance. • Created confidence-based UX patterns and guardrails to balance automation with trust in a consumer-facing regulatory product. • Partnered closely with ML engineers, product, and compliance teams to align model behavior with real-world regulatory constraints. • Optimized system performance, reducing classification time from 16–18 hours to 3–4 hours through tiered model strategy.
