About Me

I'm Taylor Cox-product designer, technical leader, and systems thinker.

I've been shipping products for 17+ years-from indie games on Steam to Layer 0 blockchain infrastructure to AI compliance platforms.

My background spans design and engineering. I started as a game developer, running Blacksword Games and shipping titles to Steam. That foundation in systems thinking-understanding how mechanics, economics, and user behavior interact-shapes everything I build today.

For the past several years, I've focused on blockchain and AI infrastructure. As CTO of Vitreus, I architected a Layer 0 blockchain, managed 26+ developers, and designed tokenomics that achieved 99% cost reduction at scale. I've also led product design for AI compliance platforms, cross-chain loyalty systems, and multi-agent AI architectures.

I believe the best products come from understanding systems, not just screens. Whether it's economic incentives, AI behavior patterns, or cross-platform user journeys-I design the underlying mechanics that make products work.

What I'm Looking For

I'm interested in roles where I can combine design leadership with technical depth. Products that involve AI, complex systems, or cross-functional coordination are where I do my best work.
