Hello!

SENIOR PRODUCT DESIGNER

Enterprise product design, grounded in

cognitive psychology.

~9 years turning dense B2B workflows into clear, trustworthy interfaces — from API management consoles and developer portals to infrastructure migration tools and logistics platforms. I design the system a product needs, then refine every pixel until the experience earns user trust.

Resume / CV

Bengaluru . India

00 / POSITIONING

I lead complex enterprise products from research through systems to shipped craft — making dense, multi-step workflows feel inevitable rather than overwhelming. The result reads less like a portfolio and more like a product evolution.

01 / CAREER JOURNEY

Where I've built.

Each role expanded the aperture — from physical product design through mobile consumer apps, logistics platforms, developer tools, and now enterprise infrastructure. The thread is always the same: reduce complexity for the people closest to the problem.
