Jonathan Gorodenzik

New York, NY

I’m a product design engineer. I design digital products and build them too, taking ideas from a rough sketch all the way to working software.

Right now I lead UX for Maestro, PwC’s AI-native audit platform, currently used by 10,000+ auditors with a massive global rollout in progress. My designs show up as working code, not static mocks. I build them with AI coding tools, wire up the interactions, debug them and stay in the code with engineering until the product feels right.

Before that, I worked on PwC’s global tax, regulatory research and automated bookkeeping platforms. I also helped launch 30+ ventures, among them Angi, SteadyMD (acquired by DocGo), ChowNow, DataPop (acquired by Criteo) and Mana Contemporary.

I love to build in niche industries, where the problems are hard and the users are experts.
