Senior🎓
Top SchoolDimitri Otero is a product designer and founder with nine years of experience building and scaling design systems for consumer and enterprise products from Peloton and Robinhood to BNY Mellon. He specializes in cross-platform mobile design systems, design token architecture, and developer-facing workflows that boost implementation speed and team adoption. At Peloton and Dave he led governance, education programs, and internal tooling to streamline asynchronous releases and improve discoverability across mobile and web. He’s comfortable both leading teams—growing BNY Mellon’s design system group and driving adoption—and doing hands-on work like creating Figma plugins and front-end templates. Based in New York, he brings a rare blend of visual craft (roots in photo retouching) and systems thinking that turns brand direction into scalable developer-friendly components.
