Iker Ortega
@ikerortega
Senior product designer leading design systems and teams for accessible digital products.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Product Designer with 18 years of experience designing and delivering digital products across telecommunications, energy, and public sectors. I specialize in product strategy, design systems, UX, accessibility, and design-development collaboration, combining product thinking with technical understanding.
In recent roles as Lead Product Designer and Design Team Manager, I’ve led multidisciplinary teams (designers, developers) and scaled design practices inside large organizations. I’ve also established design system governance across multiple digital products and improved delivery efficiency through stronger design-development alignment, including Scrum Master responsibilities.
My background includes Computer Engineering and front-end development, which helps me bridge strategy, usability, and implementation. I’m passionate about building accessible experiences and clear UX research foundations, and I bring that same practical mindset from product work to design system governance, team leadership, and continuous improvement.
