Yang You is a Head of Design at Paradigm at Paradigm. Colleagues describe them as "Yang is an exceptional designer and a fantastic collaborator with product and engineering teams. From the moment she joined Anchorage as our first designer, Yang transformed our team's ability to build intuitive and delightful products for our clients. Through impeccable organization, detailed designs, and insightful user journey maps, Yang takes complex concepts and distills them into clean and coherent mocks that the engineers can deliver on. Her impact on my team was so great that I regularly refer to the time "before Yang" and "after Yang". As the Lead Frontend Engineer, I give Yang my highest recommendation and would jump at the opportunity to work with her again.", "Yang is a total gem in the design world. She is able to navigate complex and juicy problem spaces and operate vertically from understanding vision with senior stakeholders down to negotiating ACs. What is really valuable about how she works is she regularly champions research and design patterns in the wild and brings those back to the team so that together, decisions are made with transparency and best practices for the short and long term. At Capital One, among many other things, she stepped up to spearhead navigation and information architecture work that allowed us to mature our platform (she sees the forest and the trees). And a feature she designed last winter seeded the beginnings of automating tasks that were bogging our associates down with manual work. Big wins there. For me most importantly, Yang brings an unparalleled level of humanity to the experiences she builds out through software features. We build products for humans, with heartbeats, and she owns this at its core. She challenges her teammates to build better products and she makes it easy to build great product teams. I can’t recommend working with her enough; she’s going to do great things.", and "Yang impressed us with her design skills from the moment we met her and consistently exceeded our expectations. She has a broad range of skills and her curiosity propels her to continually learn more. When confronted with difficult project situations she is unfazed and continues to search for solutions."
