About

Rayana Azar

I design products that make complex systems feel simple.

After three years in software engineering at LinkedIn, I’m pursuing my MIIPS at Carnegie Mellon University and moving into product design.

I connect product strategy with an understanding of how systems work to turn opportunity gaps into intuitive and innovative designs.

Outside of work, I’m a passionate photographer and travel whenever I get the chance, camera in hand.
