SIMONA ORLANDI
PRODUCT EXPERIENCE MANAGER
I work with ideas when they’re still seeds.
When there’s traction, complexity, and a lot being built, but the “why” needs clarity, I help teams create the right structure, priorities, and direction so ideas can take root, grow, and evolve into solid, user centric products.
With 12+ years of experience in digital and product design, management, and leadership, I work where strategy, design and execution meet, turning early potential into scalable and meaningful outcomes.

mentoring.
I’m always open to connecting with fellow designers, product people, and future product leaders.
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to mentor not only members of my teams but also designers and product practitioners beyond my daily work.
I approach mentoring as a space for listening, reflection and shared understanding, grounded in my own experience navigating complex products, organizations and moments of change.
I’ve also been a mentee myself, and that experience deeply influences how I support others as they grow, gain confidence and move into the next stage of their professional journey.
about.
Curious. Grounded. Intentional.
My journey sits between observation and action, between exploring possibilities and creating the structure that helps them thrive.
Working in product and design taught me that meaningful outcomes don’t happen by chance, they take intention, patience, and care.
This is where I share my perspective, my experience, and the path that continues to shape who I am. If you’d like to know me better, you’re in the right place.
