Ningxia Zhang is a Senior Product Designer with 14 years of experience and an 11-year focus on product design, currently shaping experiences at Instacart in NYC. With a technical foundation in software engineering and an MS in Human-Computer Interaction from Stanford, she blends rigorous engineering thinking with human-centered design practiced at companies including Facebook and Uber. Her background as an artist-technologist informs a creative approach to problem solving, bringing visual craft and conceptual curiosity to complex product challenges. Comfortable working across research, UX strategy, and execution, she has led UX initiatives from startup to scale at roles such as Director of User Experience and senior design positions at major platforms. Less obvious: she pairs formal CS training from Fudan and UCD with art practice, bridging code, design, and human storytelling in her work.
