Design engineering
made simple_
UI/UX and product designer in Kerala, working worldwide. I ship the thing, not the mockup: app design, web design and design systems, built as well as drawn. 30+ clients, 500+ design students mentored at HACA.
The work
- App and product design portfolio
App and product design: onboarding flows, paywalls, and full products. Every case study is backed by a real, running app.
- UX case studies
Longer write-ups of the work: the problem, the decisions, and what shipped.
- Design tools, Figma plugins and browser extensions
Figma plugins, browser extensions, and network tools, designed, built, and shipped for real users.
- UX findings
Findings, teardowns and notes from designing and building things.
- Hire a UI/UX designer
Services, process, and answers to the questions that come up before a project starts.

Trackwise: Where Is My Parcel?
“Where is my order?” is a quarter of all e-commerce support tickets, and the answer already exists in a carrier API. Built inside Razorpay's real Blade design system: one timeline across every handover, and every persona, plan edge and failure state designed rather than assumed.
