About Cameron Costa
I’ve spent 6+ years solving operational and financial problems, first through process and systems, and now through product design. I didn’t pivot into design. I grew into it. A background in HR and finance taught me how to spot real problems, understand messy systems, and design solutions that actually scale.I’m currently a Senior Product Designer at Paylocity working across content, community, and AI driven platforms, focused on making complex tools feel clear, flexible, and human. Previously at Paycor, I led design for high impact fintech products across payroll, reporting, data, and expense tools. From untangling SQL heavy reporting workflows to shipping zero to one experiences, I bring product thinking, a systems mindset, and strong design craft to everything I work on.Let’s connect!SKILLSDesign: Design strategy, solution optioning, wireframing, high-fidelity mockups, prototyping, user journeys, tradeoff analysis, design system implementation, cross-platform design, responsive design, accessibility.Research: Competitive analysis, metric tracking, user interviews, A/B testing, SWOT analysis, usability reviews, data-driven design, user testing, customer journey mapping, persona development, and insights synthesis.Collaboration: Stakeholder management, road-mapping, critiques, agile methodology, mentorship, design presentations, developer handoffs, cross-functional leadership, collaboration with product and engineering.Software: Figma, Notion AI, Claude, ChatGPT, Uizard, Maze, Miro, Salesforce, Pendo, Azure DevOps, UserTesting.com, Aha, Proto.io
