About Andre Seibel

I love product. Highlights of my career include designing the brand system for a startup that was acquired by Adobe and a user-generated, short-form video app for another startup that was acquired by Facebook — I worked at FB for five years and helped lead a team of 10 creative coders, visual designers, illustrators, and art directors. Recently I have been heading product at Bull Bitcoin, a non-custodial, Bitcoin-only exchange and payments platform. I’m a system-level thinker interested in solving complex user experience problems at scale and building high quality digital products, with the intent of making life easier and more fun for millions of people.
