Clarity before execution.
I’m Erik Taylor, a Senior Product Designer in Littleton, Colorado. For 8+ years I’ve worked from research through shipped interfaces on complex enterprise products.

My work brings research, product decisions, and implementation detail into the same conversation. At Tovuti I built a token-led design system aligned with Vuetify for 8–12 engineers and designed JEM, an AI journey-mapping tool. At Transamerica I worked on agent experiences in a regulated environment; at IBM I moved from content leadership into product ownership and UX.
I’m strongest when a team needs to make sense of competing signals, simplify a complex workflow, and give engineers a system they can carry forward.
Based in Littleton, Colorado, I work on Mountain Time and am open to senior roles. Fractional availability is limited.
