Vineel Chandra Macchagiri
@vineelchandra
I turn complex products, services and regulated workflows into clear, usable digital experiences.
What I'm looking for
I've shaped product, service and digital experiences for the World Health Organization, TheThinkersLab, RIG Enterprise and independent ventures. My work makes complex systems understandable—from global health learning platforms to enterprise compliance workflows.
At WHO, I led product design for the WHO Academy, including its design system, learning experience architecture and rapid COVID-19 prototyping. I worked across accessibility, digital governance, machine-learning-enabled learning, and immersive AR/VR experiences.
Today, I work independently with founders and businesses on product discovery, service design, business strategy, brand systems and delivery. I bring research, experience architecture, prototypes and implementation together to give ambiguous ideas structure and clarity.
