Aris Acoba is a senior product designer at GitHub with over a decade of experience blending product and web design with a strong engineering foundation. He has shaped developer-centric experiences across GitHub Copilot, pull requests, Actions, deployments, mobile, enterprise, packages, and npm, and brings AI into early exploration and prototyping as a creative partner. A former software engineer who started in banking, he routinely works closely with code and ships production-ready designs rather than handing off specs. He’s grown and led design teams in legaltech and scaled design systems while running hands-on freelance and agency projects, giving him a rare mix of strategic leadership and executional craft. Based in the UK, he also experiments with side projects that surface design-to-code workflows, showing a continual curiosity for tooling and rapid validation.
