Leo Mancini is a designer-engineer-artist with eight years of experience building product experiences that expand access to economic opportunity and public benefits. Currently a Member of Technical Staff at Anthropic, he previously led product design work at Cash App and Square and incubated human-centered products at Propel and his independent studio. His work blends prototyping, research, and front-end engineering to make services more equitable—often focused on people navigating government benefits and employment barriers. Based in New York with roots in Queens and a Fine Arts background from the School of Visual Arts, he brings a rare mix of visual craft and technical fluency. Leo’s practice emphasizes community and social progress, and he regularly ships production-facing features alongside experimental prototypes. A lesser-known thread through his career is long-term collaboration with startups and public sector projects, bridging design systems with policy-facing constraints.
