July 16, 2026 | Source: x | Anthropic | 198 views 0 comments

Jenny Wen, the design lead for Claude and Cowork at Anthropic, is leaving to join Cursor as head of design.

She led the visual redesign of Claude.ai and set Cowork's early product direction. Before Anthropic, she was a design director at Figma, overseeing teams for products like FigJam and Slides.

The move brings Claude's core product expertise to a direct competitor. Cursor and Claude Code are vying for dominance in the AI coding agent market, and product design will be part of the battle.
