What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead product design work where I can frame the right problems early, use research to challenge assumptions, and turn complex domain constraints into shippable digital experiences.

At Auriga IT, I lead product and UX design for client and internal initiatives across e-commerce, BFSI, digital health, SaaS, sustainability, and enterprise software. My work spans problem framing, research synthesis, information architecture, interaction design, prototyping, usability testing, design systems, and design direction.

I’ve helped teams at Meesho, Vedantu, Lupin Digital Health, ICICI Prudential Life, Ola Money, Practo, and Shopclues turn research and operational constraints into shippable experiences. I’m particularly focused on challenging assumptions early, aligning stakeholders, and using Figma tooling and AI-assisted design workflows to improve product outcomes.
