Jing 菁 Xu


I’m a product designer with experience creating impactful features and building scalable design systems across mobile platforms. 

Current I am at Spotify, design products from 0→1 and refine end-to-end user journeys that balance vision with user needs. I collaborate closely with product, engineering, research, and data science to craft thoughtful, data-driven design experiences.

Beyond product design, I’m also a film photographer, with work exhibited at the FSU Museum of Fine Arts in Florida, the CICA Museum in Korea, and the CEPA Contemporary Photography Visual Arts Center in New York.

I’m based in Brooklyn, NY.
