Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTJ Harrop is a design systems leader and manager with 11 years of experience building scalable design operations, tooling, and standards across government and enterprise products. Currently managing Design Systems at Bupa in Sydney, he blends hands-on front-end craft (a former coder) with strategic design and product management to improve quality and delivery speed. His career spans founding startups and consulting globally, leading pioneering public-sector work such as NSW’s Rules as Code and a statewide design system that married policy, regulation and engineering. Known for translating ambiguous problems into pragmatic, auditable services, he pairs DesignOps rigor with a creative curiosity—often experimenting with emerging tech and lean launches. Outside of work he’s an over-keen amateur chef, a detail that surfaces in his methodical yet inventive approach to team and system design.
