Senior product designer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, who builds what he designs, for complex enterprise software: enterprise design systems, modernizing legacy products, agentic workflows and embedded senior product design. He designs the infrastructure behind great design: design systems that people and AI coding agents build from, working prototypes built with coding agents to find out what is worth building, and the line between what software does alone and what a person decides.

# Adam Hickey
> Senior product designer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, who builds what he designs, for complex enterprise software: enterprise design systems, modernizing legacy products, agentic workflows and embedded senior product design. He designs the infrastructure behind great design: design systems that people and AI coding agents build from, working prototypes built with coding agents to find out what is worth building, and the line between what software does alone and what a person decides. Product design for software that got complicated, plus identity and illustration made end to end. Twenty years inside enterprise platforms, design systems, and products that outgrew their original shape: eight as a hybrid designer and developer, thirteen designing the systems other teams built from, and now both at once, with coding agents. Open to a senior product design role: in-house, remote or hybrid in the Twin Cities, with a team that can hire in Minnesota. Also available for select independent engagements.

Every page is plain HTML with its content in the markup; nothing is rendered by script. Each page carries a canonical URL, an Open Graph card and a schema.org graph (Person, ProfessionalService, WebSite, WebPage, Article, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList), and https://adamhickey.com/sitemap.xml lists all thirty-four pages with a last-modified date.
## How I work
Four things I bring to a product team, now that agents build too, one page each: the situation, how it goes step by step, and the account that shows it. The same work is also on offer as an independent engagement, in one sentence at each page's close.
- [Build to find out](https://adamhickey.com/engagement/working-product-prototype.html): a working prototype in days, built with coding agents, engineers deciding with something real in hand early, and a build, kill or park call made on evidence.
- [Build the system everyone builds from](https://adamhickey.com/engagement/design-system-foundation.html): one design system across 40+ SAP apps, rules written down so new teams and agents follow them without asking, and checks on every change so quality holds without me in the room.
- [Own the design inside the team, not beside it](https://adamhickey.com/engagement/embedded-senior-product-design.html): learn the job before redesigning the tool, engineering in the room from the first sketch, and a change of course when users prove the first idea wrong.
- [Turn ambiguity into a decision](https://adamhickey.com/engagement/product-clarity.html): the problem in one sentence everyone recognizes, the decisions in order and which ones stay with a person, and a working version to argue with rather than a deck.
## Writing
Ten articles: one to start with, then nine in three collections named for its three words: the system people and coding agents build from, the build, and the judgment of where a person decides. Each answers in
