Olamide Olagunju
@olamideolagunju
Senior product designer focused on growth, activation, and scalable user experiences.
What I'm looking for
I’m a multidisciplinary designer with over a decade of experience across digital product design, traditional and brand design—supported by management skills built over time. I strive to create simple, target-audience-oriented, and scalable product experiences.
I bring strong UX fundamentals and a practical systems mindset, using Atomic methodology and a component-based approach to keep work consistent and reusable. I analyze best practices and tune them for the audience I’m designing for.
In recent senior roles, I’ve focused on activation, retention, and engagement outcomes—collaborating with cross-functional product teams to deliver digital solutions for global clients. As Lead Product Designer at Kyshi, I established new brand guidelines and design systems, driving a 40% increase in user engagement.
I also lead design teams and build foundations for product quality. As Head of Product Design at Angala Financial Technologies, I built and managed designers for multiple fintech/SaaS products, improving design consistency by 100% and increasing user satisfaction by 50%, while running design sprints and implementing design systems.
