Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMichael O is a service designer with over 15 years’ experience shaping everyday digital services that help millions manage money, health, and public services. He has led product and design-system work across startups and government—driving GoHenry’s first premium membership, simplifying patient journeys and rebuilding Babylon’s visual language, and creating design patterns adopted across UK government. Comfortable operating at product, team and organisational levels, he’s repeatedly taken projects from discovery to live while building design systems and shifting teams to user-centred delivery. Equally at home in growth-focused consumer products and high-stakes public services, he combines hands-on interaction design with Design Ops and mentoring experience that scales teams. Based in London, he also brings a background in front-end development and coaching, which helps bridge design, engineering and organisational change. An unexpected throughline: he began as a freelance visual designer and photographer, giving him a strong visual craft sensibility that informs his systems work.
