Zlatko Lazarov
@zlatkolazarov
Design strategist and UX/UI leader turning product problems into shipped, accessible systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m a design strategist and product creator with 15+ years across digital product, brand, and systems design, with the last decade at the systems level of iGaming. I “diagnose products,” then build the thing that solves the structural problem underneath.
As Co-Founder & Design Lead at Ingenious, I lead product and brand work end-to-end, owning user research, design systems, and prototyping in Figma through to shipped, WCAG-compliant, production-ready work. I’ve also shaped UX/UI for a first-of-its-kind multiplayer app at BeyondPlay (part of FanDuel) and previously restructured design at SiGMA into departments while delivering conversion-focused UX and marketing design.
