Jeroen Jillissen – Design leadership at the intersection of Design and AI

I'm a principal designer at Relay.app, where I help shape how people create and automate with AI. Our goal is to make powerful agent-based workflows accessible to anyone, without requiring technical skills.

Before Relay.app, I was Director of UX for Android at Google, leading multiple teams across the platform — including Onboarding, Safety, Privacy, Gboard, and others. Working at this scale meant setting design direction across teams and products used by billions of people worldwide.

Before that, I was Director of UX for Google Workspace, leading design across Gmail, Google Chat, Google Calendar, Google Tasks, and more. It's also where I first started designing with ML and AI, through features like Smart Compose, Smart Reply, and Gmail's tabbed inbox.
