Shreya Akella
@shreyaakella
I design research-driven fintech and developer tools that improve adoption, conversion, and usability.
What I'm looking for
At Intuit, I lead end-to-end design for financial management and tax products across web and mobile. My research, journey mapping, wireframes, and Figma prototypes improved task completion by 34%.
I’ve designed onboarding, account management, and payment workflows that reduced user drop-off by 29% and improved conversion by 22%. I also build scalable Figma component libraries and design systems that improve consistency across product features and streamline handoffs with engineering.
Previously at BrowserStack, I designed cloud testing and developer productivity experiences using user research, competitive analysis, information architecture, and high-fidelity UI design. My work improved platform usability scores by 28%, feature discoverability by 32%, and feature engagement by 23%.
I bring an HCI-led approach to interaction design, usability testing, analytics, accessibility, and design QA. I enjoy turning behavioral insights into user-centered product improvements alongside product, engineering, and QA teams.
