WORK HISTORY
Staff Product Designer @Sanity
Berlin, DE
Building the content operating system that lets companies take complete control over their content operations with the help of structured data, highly customizable workflows, AI automations and content applications. My role is to design and validate new capabilities for Sanity Studio (the most customizable content editing environment) and platform-level Content Workflows (drafting, approving, releasing, collaborating) using a blend of design, AI prototyping, strategy and research methods — while having fun in this new creative moment for building products.

SKILLS
ABOUT ANDREJ BALAZ
I help organizations design services people actually want to use. With 12+ years at the intersection of research, product, and service design, I focus on taking what we know about customers into a set of offerings that can convince people to hire them.From October, I joined Sanity.io to help define a customizable, scalable way to manage content in any shape and form without losing your hair — what we call the Content Operating System.Previously, I spent five years at Miro leading research and validation for ~15 teams across Growth and Core Product. I helped bring Miro Docs, and Miro AI Prototyping from 0→1, keeping teams close to real user needs through qualitative research, training and experimentation. I contributed to helping Miro expand beyond its core Whiteboard and become useful to an entire product team.Earlier, in service design agencies, I worked hands-on with people working on factory floors, to civil servants and kids in high schools — testing on-location to uncover demand and guide companies toward new opportunities.Always happy to chat — feel free to reach out if you\'re curious!
