About Jared Zimmerman

VP, Head of Product Design & Research at Innovaccer

Currently only accepting sessions to mentor UX Managers, Leaders, and folks considering the switch from IC to management.

Hi, I’m Jared and I help product people make the best mistakes of their careers. I enable humans to enable machines to be more human. The best way to do that is by identifying problems before they emerge and finding solutions. The biggest opportunities come from the biggest problems. A lot of us feel terrified to make mistakes at work. We worry about upsetting leadership or losing jobs. I encourage mistakes. My passion is building and growing amazing teams who are encouraged to attempt the impossible, solve the unknowable, and fearlessly fail. For success in designing in the AI space, you must consider worst case scenarios, working toward descriptive outcomes, rather than prescriptive solutions. With better foresight and agility, we save time, money and team frustration. Unraveling mysteries, conceptualizing solutions, and implementing concrete outcomes that expand human potential drive me to build curious, daring teams of designers able to inspire, execute, and teach about the application of next generation technologies.
