Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolZejun Wu is a senior UX designer with 14 years of cross-disciplinary experience blending system-level UX for complex engineering workflows and hands-on technical contributions to backend tooling. Currently at Synopsys, Zejun focuses on transforming 3D modeling and simulation experiences for engineering professionals, drawing on prior Ansys work and XR/immersive learning projects at the University of Michigan. With an MS in Human-Computer Interaction and an XR certificate, Zejun pairs research-driven interaction design with prototyping in emerging spatial and voice interfaces. Unusually for a designer, Zejun has substantial Haskell and build-system contributions in major open-source projects (GHC, Cabal, Facebook’s Thrift and Buck), evidencing deep appreciation for tooling, performance, and developer workflows. This mix of design craft and low-level engineering enables Zejun to bridge product, research, and platform teams to deliver rigorous, scalable UX for technical users. Based in Hangzhou, Zejun brings a global perspective from academic exchange at UPenn and professional roles across China and the U.S.
