About Zarni Ko

I am a multi-disciplinary design leader who focuses on software and digital product design. Currently working at Jane Street in NYC supporting research & trading software development efforts. I have a decade of diverse work experience at corporations and design consultancies such as Meta Platforms, Raytheon Technologies, Squarespace, Uber, CP+B, AKQA and R/GA When I am not working on commercial things, I find joy in taking care of my cats, plants, eating ramen and making random art objects.
