> Product Designer at Meta

Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/sophiepark

I’m a product designer, a researcher, and a strategist with previous product management experience in IoT and fintech. My unique ability to navigate both business and UX enables me to take a product from zero to one.

That being said, I’m not a one-woman band nor a UI artist.

I thrive in solving complex problems, sweating meaningful details, and working with multiple stakeholders.

I’m looking for a company in emerging technology where design is valued and data informs decisions.
Let's chat :)
