@taraarya
I build scalable enterprise and SaaS experiences through design systems, research, and product strategy.
What I'm looking for
I've built enterprise, SaaS, and B2B analytics products from zero to scale for clients and teams including Ephicacy Lifescience Analytics, Tollring, SAP Labs, and myPAT.
At Ephicacy, I built a unified design system, component library, tokens, governance, and documentation across product lines, reducing UI inconsistencies by 60% and accelerating design-to-development handoff by 35%.
At Tollring, I established a quantitative behavioural research programme that improved task success by 30%, and replaced static data tables with interactive analytics experiences that reduced reliance on raw tables by 55%.
I combine UX strategy, information architecture, research, and DesignOps with hands-on prototyping and AI-assisted workflows. I also build Figma plugins, scalable interaction frameworks, and accessible mobile-first products while aligning product and engineering teams.
