Summary
👤
SeniorDarren Hoyt is a Senior Product Designer and Design Systems Architect based in New York with 13 years of experience crafting web and mobile products, iOS apps, and robust design systems for startups, agencies, and nonprofits. He combines hands-on UI and CSS/SASS work with close collaboration alongside React engineers to ensure designs ship pixel-accurate and production-ready. As a long-term consultant and founder of Amelio Studio, he’s adaptable across platforms and CMSs, auditing sites, integrating into teams, and mentoring designers on tooling like Figma. At early-stage companies he’s built product branding and design systems from scratch, and at larger engagements he balances visual leadership with front-end implementation. He actively seeks projects with cultural and philanthropic impact—libraries, universities, and arts organizations—and brings a practical, systems-first approach that often reveals workflow improvements teams hadn’t considered.
