What I'm looking for

I’m looking to design fintech and SaaS products end-to-end—focused on onboarding, compliance (KYC/AML), and risk workflows—using user research and scalable design systems to deliver clear, reliable experiences.

I’m a product designer who builds user-centered experiences for complex fintech and SaaS workflows—especially onboarding, compliance, and risk. I translate business requirements into intuitive product journeys through wireframing, prototyping, usability testing, and stakeholder workshops.

At HydrogenPay, I led end-to-end design for customer onboarding, KYC, and compliance workflows. I designed a self-service onboarding portal, UX for automated KYC and payment gateway access, and bulk reminder/notification systems to improve completion rates.

I also worked on AML sanction screening and compliance automation, plus enterprise risk management (ERM) onboarding platforms for financial institutions and non-bank organizations. To support governance and security, I designed role-based access and user permission management interfaces, and created scalable design systems with reusable components.

Earlier roles strengthened my range across product and UI work—from leading UX/UI for mobile and web applications to consulting for clients. I bring strong cross-functional collaboration habits with Product Managers, Engineers, Compliance, Operations, and Business stakeholders, and I use Figma to deliver high-fidelity designs and interactive prototypes for smooth implementation.
