Senior🎓
Top SchoolSteve Hickey is a product design leader with 14 years of experience building cohesive design teams and pragmatic systems that make complex products feel simple. Currently Director of Product Design at Robin, he blends hands-on research, design systems practice, and career mentorship to raise quality across multiple product surfaces and scrum teams. His background spans financial services, health tech, and agency work where he launched component libraries, overhauled hiring and apprenticeship programs, and scaled design operations. Steve is as comfortable steering high-level strategy as he is digging into early-stage user research and front-end prototypes—a reflection of his BFA in Graphic Design and early career in HTML/CSS. He’s known for simplifying complexity: creating hiring funnels that multiply applicant pools and graduating dozens of UX apprentices into full-time roles.
