I’m Alessandro Mingione, a designer from Rome, Italy, living in Oakland, California. I’m a design generalist at heart: starting in my early teens, I dabbled in illustration, editorial, brand, web, and type design.

For the past decade I’ve been practicing interaction design, with a focus on security and privacy software.

I started at Palantir, where I led Design for the Foundry Security product area and collaborated with the Privacy and Civil Liberties team.

I then briefly contracted for Tonic, a startup that combines synthetic data and AI to create fake datasets that behave like the real deal.

I’m now at Tailscale, where we are making networking accessible to the masses. Here I’ve touched everything from our website and branded socks, to end to end workflows that span desktop, mobile, and web apps, designing some of our most clicked buttons and beloved rectangles.
