Background

Horia Simon

Senior Product Designer

His expertise in design, code and product vision connects emerging deep tech with user-focused next-gen apps.

Recently, at Lorna AI, I led product design, vision and frontend development, gaining comprehensive startup experience.

I designed and coded the user-centric lorna.ai landing page and app, achieving early market traction.

This provided deep insights into production AI at scale, including scalable solutions, open-source tools (e.g., Langgraph), managing LLM challenges (observability, cost control, evals, decay, context window) and the importance of RAG techniques, prompt engineering, vector databases and embeddings.

18+ years driving innovation in user-centered design, focusing on AI in recent years
