Hi, I’m Monet Goode.
I’m a Product Design Director with a background in industrial design and 15+ years building products at Glassdoor, Instagram, Spotify, and New_Public.
I like messy product problems. The kind where the direction isn’t obvious yet and design can help make it real.
Today, a lot of my work sits between AI, product strategy, prototyping, and design systems. I lead teams, set direction, critique the work, and still jump in and build when that’s the fastest way to move an idea forward.
How I lead.
Make it tangible.
When something is fuzzy, I’d rather build than make another deck. Prototypes help teams see the idea, argue about the right things, and make better decisions.
Craft is part of the strategy.
I care a lot about the details. I stay close to the work through critique, interaction design, prototyping, and design systems. Quality shouldn’t show up at the end.
Build the system around the work.
Sometimes the thing holding a product back isn’t the interface. It’s the process, the team structure, or the tools people are working with. I like working on those problems too.
Selected work.
Leading the vision for Glassdoor’s flagship AI product
Glassdoor · AI · Product Strategy · Prototyping · Design LeadershipARC, Glassdoor’s AI Recruiter & Coach, was one of the company’s biggest product bets. I led design strategy and product vision, using prototypes to turn an early idea into something leadership and the broader team could see, react to, and align around.
I worked across Product, Engineering, and executive leadership to shape the direction, define the experience, and guide the team from vision through launch.
Rethinking how designers work with AI
Glassdoor · AI · Prototyping · Design leadershipAI is changing more than the products we make. It’s changing how we make them.
At Glassdoor, I’ve been helping the design team move toward a more AI-native way of working, using working prototypes earlier, building alongside Engineering, and exploring what we want to keep from the creative process as the tools around us change.
Designing for healthier online communities
New_Public · 0→1 · Product strategy · R&DAt New_Public, I led design across product, brand, and R&D as we explored a big question: what would social products look like if they were designed around the health of communities?
There wasn’t a roadmap to follow. We used research, product concepts, and prototypes to turn broad ideas into things people could actually react to.
