Seán Redington
I'm Seán, a designer who's spent over six years building digital products across Fortune 500 companies and startups. My most recent role was as Head of Product & Design at Getmee AI, an AI-powered platform helping migrants and non-English speakers build the skills they need to get hired.
Having studied Industrial Design in university, I was fortunate enough to get a UX internship at Workday. This introduced me to some incredible people and opened my eyes to the world of UX design. After returning to Workday as a grad and earning a promotion, I moved to CYGNVS, a cybersecurity startup. There, I led design work across web and native mobile apps.
I moved to Australia in 2024, and freelanced as a web designer within the charity space before accepting an offer for a full-time role at Getmee AI, a startup with a genuine mission, and the space to shape both the product and the team. At Getmee, I led product strategy, and built the systems that scaled the platform from 20,000 to 40,000 users across 15+ white-label apps.
I work best when I'm close to the problem, talking to users, sitting with the engineering team, or challenging assumptions with stakeholders.
I'm looking for my next role in a product team that's passionate about solving user problems and doesn't view design as a silo that churns out screens, but instead as a core backbone to a successful product and team.
