Olesya (Alisa) Boreyko

Design leader, team builder

I’m a Principal Designer specializing in user-centered innovation, AI-powered tools, and product strategy at scale. I lead the design of 0–1 platforms used by millions, partnering closely with engineering, product, and research to shape solutions that simplify complexity and drive measurable impact.

My work blends systems thinking with hands-on execution—from founding design systems to aligning stakeholders around a shared vision. Over the past decade, I’ve launched enterprise-grade tools, brought AI automation into the hands of real users, and spoke at a handful of design conferences. I’m at my best when untangling ambiguous problems, mentoring teams, and building intuitive experiences that work for everyone.

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me paddleboarding Oregon rivers, restoring my old house, or running urban trails. I live in Portland with my beautiful partner and two very opinionated cats, Olive and Beanie, who remain unimpressed by my resume.
