Onengine, Early-stage US software team building one platform for service, facility, freight and real estate operations.

Onengine is a 0-to-1 platform for companies running service, facility, freight and real estate operations. I joined at the concept stage and own product design: the information architecture the modules sit on, the admin and client-facing screens, and the specs engineers build from. The work happens in a running prototype rather than a static file, so a new idea meets the system it has to live in on the day it is raised.

• Built the playground: around 180 components, 20 template routes, and one settings screen where option sets, table columns and badge styles are edited by a product person without code.
• Wrote a behaviour spec per module, eleven sections each, every line tagged for where it came from: stated in the PRD, clarified later by a named person on a date, inferred with the reasoning shown, or an open gap with a number against it.
• Idea to engineer-buildable spec went from about three weeks to day one. Both ends exclude development. Three weeks was roughly a week of requirements plus one to two weeks of design assessment, feedback and rework.
• Designed client inventory, location and site profiles, and work order management across admin and client surfaces.

Product Designer

Zeta, Cloud-native credit card processing platform. The back-office tools banks run cards on.

Zeta's platform is what a bank's staff work in all day: support, end-of-day operations, control. I designed those tools across several product centers, and worked on the design system the whole product draws from, contributing components and patterns with documentation good enough for another designer to use them without asking me.

• Ran a three-day sprint with ten to fifteen product designers to work out how many surfaces the product actually needed. Eight distinct scenarios came out of it, and three patterns covered all eight. Counts from memory.
• Specified those three as whole surfaces rather than components: a parent-child view, a floating compose box with a bottom dock, and a side panel. The rules went with them, down to resize limits and which forms stay open when an agent switches to a different account holder.
• The surfaces were inherited across the product centers instead of being reimplemented per team.
• Designed the Account Holder Schema editor: object tree, per-field properties, and a two-step publish that saves locally before committing to a changeset.

Product Designer

56 Secure, Subscription security service for homes, apartments and businesses: patrol guards, cameras and an SOS app.

56 Secure sells security by subscription, so its value is invisible until the worst day. I was the only designer when I joined, and led design across product, web and marketing while the function grew to four people. The app was mobile-first and inconsistent, so much of the work was deciding order with the executives before drawing anything.

• Designed first-time onboarding for the app's critical flows, the incident listing that shows what happened near you this week, and a request catalogue built by sitting with support, sales and marketing.
• Built Apartment Security as a second product line out of the first one's parts: a resident app and a society dashboard covering visitors, staff, SOS and payments. It shipped.
• Rebuilt the marketing site, and made the 2021 safety report from the service's own data: 783 SOS raised that year.

User Experience Designer

Ameriprise Financial Services, US financial advice and asset management firm; the applications its advisors and back office use.

I sat on the core design team and worked on data-dense internal applications with the business partners who owned them. Most of it started as requirements and data rather than a brief, so I read the quantitative and qualitative material before drawing anything.

• Turned hard copy forms into digital flows, which meant working out what a paper page is really asking before it becomes a screen.
• Designed data-rich applications and information-dense interfaces from requirements analysed with stakeholders.
• Kept improving the usability of data-intense workflows against what users told us, rather than shipping once.

Design Engineer, Web and Cloud Applications

Hillwood, Real estate and industrial development company; internal and public web applications for its workforce and events.

I designed and built internal and external web applications with engineers and the people who used them. The wireframes, prototypes and research were mine, and so was the code that shipped them. Salesforce was the platform, so its patterns set the vocabulary. The role ran alongside my master's at CSU Fullerton.

• Built applications in Apex and Visualforce on Force.com sites, and configured Lightning interfaces and pages.
• Worked the applications behind workforce and event distribution from research and wireframes through to the running product.

Web Developer, Designer

GITAM Deemed University, Student organisation I co-founded at the university, building web projects for its initiatives and events.

I co-founded the organisation and led a team of more than twenty students. We built web projects for university initiatives, and ran technical fests and workshops on entrepreneurship. The largest piece was a product for the university's placement process, which I started, designed and built.

• Started, designed and built a web product that supported university placements.
• Led and mentored a team of over twenty students across projects and events.
• Best Student Award, 2016.

UI/UX Engineer, intern team lead

Symbiosys Technologies, Software services company in Visakhapatnam. A six-week internship.

I led the intern group on an online survey tool, from concept to delivery in short cycles. It was built for user research before a product launch, so the analytics team could get accurate performance numbers out of it.

• Designed and prototyped the tool end to end; it was used for in-house product testing.
• System Usability Scale scores improved after the work. I do not have the figures.

Digital Media Designer and Web Developer

Visakhapatnam Urban Development Authority, The city's development authority. Visakha Utsav is a state cultural event.

I ran design for Visakha Utsav, working directly with the state government to a fixed brief and a fixed date. I managed a team of six and delivered every digital asset the event needed.

• Delivered the branding and its rules, a responsive web app, and graphics that had to hold from a phone screen to a billboard.
• The work was covered in a state newspaper editorial.
