About

I design enterprise products that work — and build the teams and systems that make great design repeatable. With 13+ years in UX/UI design and product design leadership, I've worked across Enterprise SaaS, Fintech, Cloud, and Platform products — from early discovery and user research through to pixel-perfect UI, design systems, and developer handoff. At CG VAK, I lead a distributed team of 10+ designers across India, the US, and Europe. I've built design systems from scratch, introduced AI-assisted design workflows using Figma AI and Adobe Firefly, and redesigned enterprise products that reduced task completion time by 40% and improved workflow efficiency by 30–35%. What I care most about: making complex workflows feel simple, building scalable design systems that teams actually use, and growing designers who do their best work. Key areas: UX/UI Design · Product Design · Design Systems · DesignOps · Interaction Design · User Research · Accessibility (WCAG) · Figma · Enterprise SaaS · Fintech · Usability Testing · Team Leadership Portfolio: behance.net/cvijesh Open to: Lead UX/UI Designer, Senior Product Designer, Product Design Manager roles
