Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Ridilla is an Associate Creative Director specializing in design systems and DesignOps with 12 years of experience shaping scalable product and enterprise UX at Comcast. He blends hands-on visual and product design chops with strategic team-building—creating design systems, improving cross-functional workflows, and reducing wasted meetings and miscommunication. David has led long-range product visions for employee-facing tools, driven org-wide design system adoption, and launched field research practices that turned loose requirements into widely used operational tools. He’s a mentor-first manager who prioritizes psychological safety, career growth, and measurable impact while still delighting in the “what if we made it?” experiments. Based in Philadelphia, he brings a rare mix of creative curiosity and operational rigor, equally comfortable sketching pixel details or defining multi-year roadmaps. An early background in agency and marketing design gives him an uncommon sensitivity to narrative and storytelling in product work.
