About

I’m a Senior UX/UI Designer and Design Lead with 8 years of experience designing products that real users depend on—across SaaS, PropTech, and EdTech. At Paraminfo Solutions, I lead design across multiple products including Properties.Market (India & UAE), PiHire, PiHappiness, PiSupport, and PiVMS. I handle end-to-end design—from discovery and user research to wireframes, UI, and developer handoff. Beyond individual contribution, I’ve mentored 3–5 fresher designers in each organization I’ve worked with. I help them get comfortable with Figma, improve UX thinking, and grow into independent contributors. Seeing that growth is one of the most rewarding parts of my role. What sets me apart is how I approach design. I think in systems, design for behavior, and actively use AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Figma Make, and Midjourney to speed up research, explore ideas faster, and improve design outcomes. I come from a BFA (Applied Arts) background, which gives me a strong foundation in visual design. I focus not just on usability, but also on making products feel polished and intuitive. Earlier at LSN Software Services, I spent 5 years growing from a Junior to Senior Designer. I worked on a full-suite EdTech platform covering school management, student and parent apps, LMS, HR modules, and more, while also handling branding, print, and digital design. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT I DO WELL • End-to-end product design—from problem framing to pixel-perfect handoff • Multi-product design leadership across SaaS platforms • Mentoring & growing fresher designers into confident contributors • User flows, information architecture, and interaction design • Figma prototyping, design systems, and component libraries • Developer handoff documentation with UX rationale (Fitts's, Hick's, Gestalt) • Accessibility design (WCAG AA/AAA) • AI-augmented design workflows ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ DOMAINS I'VE SHIPPED IN • PropTech • HRTech • SaaS • EdTech ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ CURRENTLY OPEN TO Senior UX Designer / Lead UX Designer / Product Designer roles at product companies in SaaS, PropTech, FinTech, or EdTech—in Hyderabad or remote. Feel free to reach out: I'm always happy to connect with fellow designers, product leaders, and recruiters. Call: 9010247751 Mail: saikiran.uiuxdesigner@gmail.com
