Product Designer
Ishaan Kansal
DoorDash / San Francisco
I was born and raised in India before I came to study Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. Currently working as a Senior Product Designer at DoorDash. Previously I was a Product Designer at Samsara. I have also been recognized as a Kleiner Perkins Design fellow at Airware and did product design internships at Facebook and Pinterest.
I like to work on challenging problems that help people get more out of their time and be able to accentuate their capabilities. Most recently, I have been working on designing solutions that would increase driver safety on road through workflow and AI solutions. I have experience designing across industries (both enterprise and consumer spaces) and that has helped me better understand problems and propose creative solutions. Through this program, I am looking for opportunities where I can give back to the community and help upcoming designers break into the field.
