Jonathan Braun is a product design leader in Boston with nine years of experience blending user-centered design, front-end development, and cross-functional product leadership. Currently Director of Product Design at OpenGov, he has scaled design teams and processes from hands-on UX work to strategic product initiatives across public sector software. His background includes both engineering skills (Ruby, JavaScript, React, HTML/CSS) and a proven track record at Bullhorn of auditing design systems, shipping prototypes, and codifying team design practices. Earlier experience as a producer in advertising gives him uncommon strength in stakeholder management, planning, and shipping under budget and deadline pressure. He pairs formal training from freeCodeCamp and Launch Academy with a humanities degree, enabling clear communication of complex technical tradeoffs. Colleagues rely on him to translate messy product problems into practical, design-led solutions that ship.
