JSeitz Designs – Portfolio of John Seitz

I am passionate about building applications that are centered on the user. I turn complex ideas into simple, enjoyable solutions that allow users to achieve their goals. I enjoy working with a diverse group of people to develop innovative products that meet the goals of the business and optimize the user experience.

What I’m Looking For in My Next Role

I’m seeking a senior-level UX/Product Designer position with an established organization – public or private – that tackles complex, meaningful challenges. I thrive in environments where problem-solving goes beyond surface-level aesthetics and dives into the heart of systems, behaviors, and real human needs.

The kind of environment where I do my best work:

People-first, not just pixel-perfect.
I value soft skills as much as design skills. Building trust, having honest conversations, and understanding team dynamics are how we get to the core of a problem, and how we create solutions that truly resonate. I want to be the person you rely on to ask the hard questions and advocate for what matters most.
Customer-centered, not artifact-driven.
I believe in research, personas, journey maps, and wireframes, but only as tools to help us build better experiences. The true product is the experience we deliver to the user. Everything else is in service of that.
Genuinely innovative.
I’m drawn to teams that don’t just talk about innovation but embrace the risk that comes with it. Real innovation is uncertain, often messy, and occasionally uncomfortable—but that’s what makes it powerful. Give me something meaningful to influence, and you’ll find me working on it long after hours because I believe in it.
Diverse and deep product ecosystems.
I’m energized by complexity, whether that means a variety of products or a single platform with depth. That complexity creates opportunities for systems thinking, cross-functional collaboration, and breaking down silos to create holistic, scalable experiences.
Loyalty and long-term vision.
I value stability and mutual commitment. As companies evolve and respond to change, I want to be part of a team that sticks together, adapts thoughtfully, and builds trust over time.
