@nikitafursov
Product Designer specializing in consumer UX and behavior-sensitive digital experiences.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Product Designer with 5+ years designing consumer-facing and behavior-sensitive digital products across web and mobile. I turn ambiguous product ideas, dense information, and multi-step flows into intuitive, polished experiences that improve activation, trust, and retention.
In my most recent work, I led end-to-end design for fintech, web3, e-commerce, and consumer products—reducing onboarding time by around 25% and improving reported user satisfaction by up to 40%. I also built reusable design systems and implementation-ready specs that reduced design rework and developer revision cycles by 20–30%, while increasing engagement by roughly 30% through Telegram-based interaction clarity.
