A bit about me.

I'm Jim Silverman, digital product designer from New Jersey. With over a decade of experience, I take pride in transforming complex and nuanced processes into intuitive and enjoyable interfaces that help people get their work done easily.

The values that guide my work.

These principles shape how I collaborate, make decisions, and approach challenges. If you find yourself nodding along, we’ll probably get along just fine.

Lead by example

Lead by example.

Real leadership is founded upon trust. And actions speak much louder than slide decks.

Follow facts over assumptions

Follow facts over assumptions.

Instinct can spark ideas, but evidence keeps them standing. Seek data to confirm (or debunk) ideas.

Do less, not more

Do less.

Quick action is often less effective than slowing down and being intentional.

Hold opinions loosely

Hold opinions loosely.

Changing your opinion is just a sign that you've learned something new.

Have fun doing it

We've got plenty of years before retirement. It’s worth finding the humor, the wins, and the moments worth remembering.

Let's work together.

Like what you see? Great to hear! Even if I’m not actively on the job hunt, I’m always curious about interesting challenges and love hearing about opportunities to make an impact.

Here’s what I look for in a role:

  • Remote-friendly: I work best from my own home. After years of commuting 3–4 hours a day and missing time with my kids, this is non-negotiable.
  • Complex challenges: I love turning chaotic, complicated interfaces into experiences that feel clear, simple, and efficient.
  • Workflow products: I’m happiest when I’m making someone’s day easier, their work faster, and their tools more enjoyable to use.
  • Individual contributor: I love doing the work myself and mentoring others along the way, but I’m not looking for a purely managerial position.
