Hi, I'm Josh Gold.

I use strategy and craft to move users and business metrics — Currently a Staff Product Designer at LinkedIn working on Marketing Solutions.

Side projects I designed, built, and shipped end-to-end — using AI-assisted vibecoding.

My design philosophy.

Strategy and craft aren't in tension — they reinforce each other.

01
Know what you're moving.
I want to know which metrics the work should shift — support volume, self-serve rate, activation, retention — and I stay close to the data before and after shipping.
02
Research that maps users to the business.
I dig into what users are trying to accomplish, then map those goals to business goals, then to experience goals — the chain behind a defensible decision.
03
Craft is the standard, not the finish line.
Typography, hierarchy, interaction, empty states, edge cases — these aren't polish, they're the product. Users feel the details, and it builds trust.
04
Full-stack by default.
I run research, set strategy, define IA, design interactions, and prototype in code when fidelity matters — every handoff is where context and craft get lost.
05
Systems that scale, shipped fast.
I build patterns early so iterations are additive, not corrective — then bias toward getting something real into the market and closing the loop.
06
Make the team better, not just the product.
I bring engineers, PMs, and designers into the work early, write down how decisions get made, and mentor as I go, so the team keeps making good calls when I'm not in the room.
