Lina Dong
AI Product Designer
14 years in product design. 3+ years shipping AI-native products at scale. Based in Beijing (UTC+8).

What I do

I design AI-native products: generative interfaces, multi-agent workflows, and the moments where AI fails, surprises, or needs to explain itself. My focus is on making AI capability feel legible, trustworthy, and interruptible to real users.

Core design competencies: capability surfacing, agent legibility, in-flight control, repair UX, streaming and failure states, autonomy gradients, memory UX, and human-AI workflow design.

Built in production, not as concepts. At Mootion I led design for a multi-agent video generation product used by 2M+ creators across 50+ countries, including building the consumer app's Design Language and Design System from zero and establishing these interaction patterns across the product.
