TurboTax 2026

Role: Senior Product Designer

Dynamic Onboarding

Returning Users

About

An AI-driven initiative designed to transform the onboarding experience for returning TurboTax customers.

By integrating advanced machine learning models, the project delivers highly personalized product recommendations, user interface configurations, and targeted incentives.

Challenge

TurboTax's returning user onboarding treated all customers the same, pushing everyone through identical screens and static recommendations. This one-size-fits-all experience failed to adapt to shifting user mindsets, decreasing confidence in the recommendation, and contributing to approximately 8.3 million returning customers defecting.

Goal

Design adaptive, AI-powered, onboarding journeys that build confidence and meet users where they are—flexing with their needs, mindset, and seasonality.
