ABOUT YILAN GAO
I think in systems and make them feel simple.My work lives in regulated, high-stakes domains where getting it wrong has real consequences- Design decisions influencing multi-billion USD worth of assets- Compliance workflows where every override needs a documented trail- Billing models where users need to understand what they\'re buying intuitively on their ownI\'m the designer who asks \"which user do we serve first and why\" before opening Figma.I\'ve scoped product strategy without a PM, sequenced rollouts across competing stakeholders, and shipped 0→1 platforms as the only designer on engineering teams - twice.Trained as an illustrator at RISD, then rewired at NYU through MBA classes at Stern and JD classes at NYU Law. That blend - visual craft, business-first thinking, and the habit of stress-testing every assumption from multiple angles - is how I approach product design.Currently at Goldman Sachs. Previously Correlation One (LinkedIn Top Startup 2022) and Lacework ($8B+ cybersecurity unicorn).••••••••@gmail.com
