About Erika Michielon

Greetings from Cork, Ireland!

I’m Erika, a product designer and a generalist. I enjoy working in fast-moving, small teams, wearing different hats. I believe design is better when it’s collaborative and scientificI’d love to measure everything, but I know it’s not always possible, or useful: from framing what we are building and why, together with cross-functional teammates, to measuring what shipped and iterating. I’m looking for my next role, drawn to B2B products that help people with their daily work, but open to opportunities.

In my free time I’m playing padelOr squash, or table tennis, or foosball, or anything really, I just love playing!, cooking, listening to podcasts, trying something newCurrently knitting, or building side projects.

Thanks for stopping by,
Erika
