Jeremy Barnes is a design leader and hands-on AI builder with 8 years of experience shaping design systems and tooling for enterprise products. He has led cross-functional teams at Microsoft, Intuit, Splunk, Gatsby, and now HubSpot, scaling design systems from 0-to-1 and driving measurable efficiency gains like massive re-theming speedups and multi-thousand-hour developer savings. He blends creative direction with prototyping in code—building MCP servers, AI-generated documentation, and automation that reduces tedious system tasks for designers and engineers. Known for applying design tokens, accessible data visualizations, and config-driven layouts at scale, he focuses on making design systems the engine for generative user experiences. Based in the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area, he pairs product-minded stakeholder leadership with a curiosity for tooling that turns design work into repeatable, automated outcomes.
