Hi, I'm Lee Munroe
I'm a Product Design Leader & Builder
I live at the cross section of design, engineering, and product. I design and build digital products, specializing in developer tools, messaging platforms, and AI-powered B2B software.
I spent over a decade in the San Francisco Bay Area working with venture-backed startups, often as the first design hire helping shape products from the ground up and building design teams along the way.
Today I'm located in the UK leading a fully remote design org at OneSignal.
