Lead Product Designer modernizing enterprise SaaS with scalable design systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Lead Product Designer with 8+ years of experience helping enterprise SaaS companies solve complex product challenges. I turn ambiguity into scalable product experiences by combining systems thinking, product strategy, and close collaboration with engineering.
Across my career, I’ve modernized legacy platforms, designed enterprise workflows, built design systems for large product ecosystems, and introduced AI-assisted workflwos that help teams build faster without compromising quality. I’ve led design initiatives supporting global organizations and helped create systems used across dozens of products and multiple engineering teams.
In my current role, I lead the Design System for a white-label digital banking platform supporting more than 30 applications and serving 150+ credit unions. I’m focused on scalable foundations that balance consistency with institution-specific customization—through reusable patterns, governance, component architecture, and product/engineering alignment on accessibility and implementation.
Before that, I led UX modernization for a construction management platform, transforming 15+ independent legacy desktop tools into a cohesive web experience and building/scaling a Design System from scratch. I also freelance on enterprise financial products, where I simplified complex investment workflows and audited an over-engineered Design System by eliminating 180+ unnecessary design tokens to improve usability and long-term scalability.
