Bio
Brian Zaik
Eric is an outstanding design leader and brings a deep empathy for others into everything he does. He and I worked very closely together at AppDynamics for several years to bring a number of strategically important design initiatives to light. Eric was critical in launching the company’s first design system, rebranding the entire product, implementing an open contribution system and community around UX design patterns, and designing a UI component library in lockstep with our UI Engineering organization. I wholeheartedly recommend Eric for any position in UX or Product Design, including people leadership roles. Eric approaches every problem with a curious mindset and care for end users and fellow designers. He went above and beyond his job responsibilities to put together holistic strategies for accessibility and internationalization in our product, getting buy-in from other leaders and company executives through workshops and presentations. He is adept at running end-to-end design activities and building scalable design practices to improve usability and increase customer delight with B2B SaaS products. Eric also provided stability within our design team at AppDynamics by partnering with other technical teams to enforce design principles. As a leader, he emphasizes a strong team culture based around collaboration, mentorship, and a growth mindset. As Eric’s manager and later as a partner in Design as I moved into Product Management, I always appreciated Eric’s willingness to seek feedback and grow personally.
