Sherif T.

Vetted design research manager in the United States (UTC-5)

I'm a product manager, product designer, and design strategist. I've designed and delivered (to production) multiple products from zero to one. I've designed and led teams, built websites, web apps, native apps, mobile apps, design systems, and even APIs. I've worked with scrum teams in multiple locations including Mexico, USA, Germany, Ukraine, and India. I eat requirements for breakfast. I can roadmap a product, research the personas and user journeys, prioritize the features, design the screens, and have enough experience with HTML, CSS, and some JavaScript to guide front-end developers with design system components and libraries during development. (I've even built a couple of designs systems from zero.) I've advised several startups on their product design and journey, including an award winning AI company in Silicon Valley. How can I help you?

nikko F.

Vetted design research manager in Singapore (UTC+8)

My latest role was at Hitachi Asia Ltd. Singapore as a Lead UI/UX designer. I joined to assist developers with little to no design experience on various ongoing and upcoming large projects. I am part of the ICTB team, which provides a wide range of innovative and practical business and ICT solutions to enhance our customers' operations. Over the years, we have established an impressive track record of delivering excellent results, serving a diverse clientele that includes multinational, regional, and local companies. During my six years at Hitachi Asia, we secured numerous projects valued at an estimated $20-30 million. I was actively involved throughout the entire process, from pre-sales preparation and pitching to project completion. I consistently follow key processes in every project I undertake, starting with understanding requirements through stakeholder interviews, followed by user research. I collaborate closely with our project manager and development team during in-house development. I begin with iterative wireframing and then progress to high-fidelity design based on the required branding or a completely new one while gathering feedback. I maintain open communication through weekly meetings to provide regular updates. Cross-functional collaboration is essential for me in every project, and I conduct extensive testing on the product. Finally, I seek approval from stakeholders to ensure all objectives have been met. I entered the field of Creatives not by chance, but out of passion. I incorporated it into my computer curriculum during my ten years of teaching high school and college classes, and as a product trainer at microsoft customer service. Over the past 2 decades, I have continually enhanced my skills and still learn something new every day. As a Content Creator and Director, my expertise encompasses digital imaging and retouching for print and web design, final art, layout work, adaptation, photography, cinematography, and camera work. While in Singapore, I enhanced the portfolios of the companies I worked with by collaborating primarily with Japanese clients, including SONY, CANON, and FUJITSU, among others. Many of my projects have garnered both local and international recognition. Today, my aspiration as a UI/UX designer is to create more intuitive and engaging user experiences that effectively meet the needs of users while achieving business goals. I strive more to understand users deeply, incorporating their feedback into designs that enhance usability and accessibility. I aim to innovate and stay ahead of design trends, ensuring that my work not only solves problems but also delights users. Ultimately, a positive impact to society.
