Jake Ledford
Open to Work
I’m a Senior Product Designer pursuing an MBA in AI.
With experience on over two dozen SaaS products, I’ve shipped systems that help teams move faster, reduce uncertainty, and adopt AI responsibly. I value durable design systems, clear execution, and mentoring those who want to work in complex, system-level problem spaces.
Today, I'm drawn to complex domains: asset recovery, fintech, MSP operations, compliance-heavy anything. Where constraints are real, and someone has usually been living with the broken version for years. I implement solutions where small details make the difference.
