Work Experience
I joined Shopify in 2020 to work on the Shop app. Shopify went 100% remote in 2020, so this was a fully remote role. Initially I was part of the Growth team, where I worked on experiments to improve acquisition and retention of users.
In early 2022 I joined the Reviews team at a time when the feature was just getting off the ground. Since then:
-
We shipped the first iteration of displaying product reviews in the Shop app
-
Gave merchants the ability to reply to reviews directly from their admin tool
-
I regularly contributed to Gravity, our design system, through cross-team collaborative efforts to maintain a high bar on quality and consistency in our user interfaces
-
I worked constantly with my managers to track my career path and progression using our own career- development frameworks
-
Together with our product manager, engineering lead, and data scientist, I was part of the Reviews “multifecta”, which met weekly to decide on team deliveries, objectives, and roadmaps
-
I performed multiple user research sessions with both buyers and merchants to guide us in our decision-making and prioritisation processes
-
I collaborated daily with engineers through pairing sessions, bug bashes, and shipped my own PRs to fix minor UI issues and polish the product
-
Had the opportunity to work directly on AI-focused projects using ChatGPT and MidJourney
Carta helps companies and investors manage their cap tables, valuations, investments, and equity. In 2019 Carta raised $300M and was valued at $1.7B, making it a Silicon Valley unicorn.
-
I was part of a design team that collaborated directly with product and engineering to deliver a great experience to our users.
-
I was the first female designer and employee number 90. Today Carta is over 600 strong and growing
-
Spent a total of 5 months of working and living in Silicon Valley
-
In the early days, I was worked as a "Producer", a mix of product manager and designer, responsible for making product decisions and coordinating with engineering and business teams
-
I was part of the team executing the rebranding and transformation from eShares to Carta
-
Worked autonomously without a product manager for a year and had to assume the responsibilities of both product manager and designer
-
Was the sole designer of the Onboarding team for almost 2 years, and became one of the main sources of knowledge about onboarding users and its challenges
-
My team built a successful proof-of-concept and final implementation of the self-service onboarding tool, which is now one of the main features of the platform and generates tons of margin for the company
-
Organised Carta Cares by engaging and putting together volunteering events for the Rio office
-
My team won the first-ever Carta Hackathon
-
I presented projects in front of the entire company on multiple occasions and had to defend my point of view before the leadership and design team on a regular basis
-
Contributed to and worked within the company's design system
