Craig Mann

@craigmann

Product design leader at TrueLayer who established its design system across web, iOS and Android, with ~100 components.

At TrueLayer, I founded the original design-system initiative and grew it into shared foundations for web, iOS and Android. The library includes ~100 components, tokens and patterns, supporting multiple B2B and B2C products.

I progressed through UX/UI Designer, UX/UI Design lead and UX/UI Design manager roles at TrueLayer, working as both an individual contributor and manager. I managed a cross-functional team of product designers and web developers, applied WCAG and inclusive-design knowledge, and contributed front-end PRs using handwritten and AI-generated code.
