Summary
Joshua Naylor is a product-focused UX leader with 11+ years of experience building and scaling design teams across agencies, startups, and enterprise retailers. He has driven measurable business impact—leading efforts that helped Vivid Seats grow from $300M to over $3B in revenue and spearheading e-commerce features at Ahold Delhaize that supported $92M+ weekly and sustained double-digit YoY growth. A hands-on designer with front-end and visual design roots, Joshua pioneered practical innovations like 360° seat-view photography that lifted conversions 18% and championed mobile-first and responsive design across organizations. He founded and scaled DesignOps practices to improve designer efficiency, accelerate time-to-market by 75%, and grow teams from single digits to 30+ practitioners. Equally comfortable in strategy and execution, he pairs a curator’s eye from his photography and art background with data-driven product leadership. Now based in South Bend, Indiana, he’s focused on leading teams to craft obsessively detailed, world-class digital products.
