Summary
Brian Lichliter is a Senior Product Designer in the San Francisco Bay Area with 11 years of multidisciplinary experience spanning design, product management, and engineering. He specializes in developer tooling and platform experiences, most recently returning to Workday after leading and designing Uiflow, a no-code platform that was acquired for its extensible approach to integrating React components and arbitrary data sources. Comfortable shipping end-to-end products, Brian blends hands-on engineering instincts with product strategy to tackle complex technical workflows and developer UX. His background includes building data and analytics tools, agency-level experience in experience design, and early front-end engineering—skills that help him bridge design and implementation. He holds an M.S. in Engineering Design and Innovation and a B.S. in Computer Engineering from Northwestern, which reinforces his systems-level approach to product problems. Colleagues describe him as a problem-seeker who deliberately takes on the hardest challenges and designs practical, extensible solutions.
