Julie Chabin
One head, several hats. Mostly design.
I help turn ideas into real, thoughtful products—easy to use, hard to ignore, and ready to grow.
Previously, I led design at Product Hunt. I created a strong user experience and brand, shaped strategy, and scaled design with a small, fast-moving remote team.
Now I work with founders to build their product's first version, raise funds, and get noticed. I also vibe code my own tools. It starts with curiosity, and always ends in learning.
Teams I've collaborated with
/ Work principles
Design is understanding
Good design makes hard things feel simple. It's informed, intentional, and grounded in real insight.
Product is never done
The job doesn't end on launch day. It's a cycle of testing, learning, and continuous improvement.
"Lazy" is a short way to say efficient
If there's a faster, smarter way to get great results, take it. Outcomes matter more than process.
Strategy is early pattern recognition
Look three years ahead. Spot patterns, map systems, and sequence work with intent.
