Hi, I’m Julie Kim — a product designer who obsesses over clarity and craft
I love turning ambiguous problems into elegant product experiences — ones that feel intuitive to use and delightful to look at. My work is driven by a deep respect for users, systems thinking, and high standards for visual quality.
Currently open to new opportunities — open to teams that value clarity, craft, and impact

Hi, I'm Julie
I'm a Product designer based in Seattle. I’m driven to create designs that make experiences more valuable, efficient, and meaningful.
I’ve worked with the Azure and Microsoft 365 teams at Microsoft. — Before transitioning to UX, I designed physical spaces, moving from crafting walls and spaces to creating seamless digital experiences. This background shapes how I approach digital design—balancing system, functionality, and a focus on human connection.
Along with the cloud capacity design works, I led design on Microsoft's Responsible AI tool.
As AI grows, ensuring compliance is crucial for minimizing risks and maintaining trust — Microsoft built an internal Responsible AI tool to help teams manage compliance and governance with ease.
In May 2024, I joined this team. With constant user feedback and an inconsistent experience, I collaborated with cross-functional teams to improve the tool’s experience.
