About

Lead UX and Product Designer with 10+ years designing enterprise AI platforms, regulated fintech products, and complex workflow-heavy systems across B2B, SaaS, and B2C domains. I work closely with product owners, engineers, and business stakeholders as part of cross-functional teams, owning the full UX lifecycle from problem discovery and user research through wireframing, prototyping, and validation. I focus on understanding the bigger picture and designing scalable systems rather than individual screens. Along the way I have driven product roadmap conversations, run design sprints and critique sessions, participated in hiring, and mentored designers to raise overall team quality. I also own the motion layer, producing Lottie animation systems and stakeholder explainer videos that cut 40-minute walkthroughs to under 3 minutes. Experience spans Applied Materials (Generative AI platforms), Paytm Money (SEBI-regulated, 21M+ users), Scientific Games (17+ shipped titles), and BYJU'S (EdTech). Fluent in Figma, After Effects, and Adobe Creative Suite.

Work experience

Lead II UX Designer at UST, Dec 2023 - Present · 2 yrs 11 mos, Bengaluru, Client: Applied Materials Led UX strategy and design across 10+ AI and data platform products, owning full end-to-end delivery from discovery through to shipped interfaces used by global engineering teams. Designed AI-first product experiences across Applied GPT, PeopleAssist AI, PDC, KBS, and DES, working on conversational AI interfaces, AI reasoning flows, confidence indicators, and source cited answer systems that made complex AI behaviour transparent and trustworthy for end users. Got into product roadmap conversations early, worked alongside product owners to flag UX risks, pushed back when research was being skipped, and made sure design was shaping the backlog rather than just responding to it. Ran design critique sessions across the team where decisions got questioned and inconsistencies were caught before they shipped. Over time this became part of how the team worked, not a one-off. Mentored junior designers one-on-one, helping them move from executing tasks to understanding the reasoning behind decisions. Set up shared review rhythms and component standards the team could sustain. Ran discovery workshops and design sprint sessions with cross-functional teams to align on problem framing, surface edge cases early, and keep engineering and product moving in the same direction from the start. Actively participated in the hiring process for UX designers, reviewing portfolios, conducting design interviews, and helping define what good looks like for the team. Maintained and scaled the design system across 9 products, keeping interaction patterns, components, and documentation consistent as the portfolio kept growing. Led the motion communication output across the team, overseeing scripting direction, storyboard reviews, and final delivery of 20+ product explainer and stakeholder presentation videos, cutting 40-minute technical walkthroughs to under 3 minutes for client-facing presentations. https://www.ust.com/
