About Milly Schmidt

Experience design manager at Atlassian

I'm a startup veteran who became a design manager/leader. I love coaching and would love to help you along your journey too.

In our chat we can explore your work itself, your career journey more broadly, or relationship/people puzzles. I'm happy to share my stories, offer advice or help you develop through coaching questions with the goal to unlock new perspectives and strategies that come from you, not me!

I've worked across engineering, UX and product roles – and now in leadership and management.

I like riding bikes, running, yoga and piano in my spare time.

“During our session, Milly demystified her role as ''Experience Manager" and her day-to-day life as an experience manager. She is super transparent about any work-related questions and very knowledgeable within the design and product management field! Recommend you folks book her for long-term career planning.”
