Julian Murphy
I design AI-first products that turn complex data and workflows into clear, trustworthy experiences teams can ship with confidence.
About
“I partner with teams to design AI-first experiences that feel human, handle complexity, and move the metrics that matter.”
I’m a senior product designer and AI-first design partner focused on complex, data-heavy products. Over 16+ years I’ve helped teams at Microsoft, Amazon, and others turn “let’s add AI” into clear strategies, prototypes, and shipped features. I work at the intersection of UX, data, and engineering, fluent in design systems, variables, tokens, and enough code to “speak dev,” so what we ship is both beautiful and buildable.
