Product designer

I design and build systems to save time, effort & money.

Most recently at Swivl, designing field-service software.

Living in Bangalore, by way of Nashik . Most recently I was at Swivl, designing field service management software. My invoice redesign cut the time to send one from over 6 minutes to about 2. I started in 2020 at MagSway with a computer science degree behind me, then moved to Houzeo.

I design for people, which mostly means finding the real problem and solving it. I love to design with code. See it on GitHub (opens in a new tab), or say hi on LinkedIn (opens in a new tab).

I watch session recordings, talk to customers, then build the idea in code with Claude Code, Cursor and Figma MCP until it holds up on real data.

When I’m not designing, I write about designing for AI on Substack (opens in a new tab), go on slow runs and learn German and Japanese. My last trek was in Himachal.

Tracks

Primarily focused on

6 years of shipping, settled into three tracks that sharpen each other every day.

Product Design

6 years

Most aspects of design and business, end to end, while shipping a product.

AI Workflows

Since 2024

Designing AI features people can trust, and building with AI every day: Claude Code, Cursor and Figma MCP.

Design Systems

Since 2025

One set of parts with the same names in design and code, so a small team ships fast. Swivl’s full revamp took six weeks.

By the numbers

6 years,
by the numbers.

Products shipped, teams joined, systems kept running — six years, counted rather than described.

AI is part of how I design & build,

Not a novelty, a daily practice. These are the tools I reach for to move from a rough idea to a shipped, working product.

Invoices & EstimatesSole designer · 2025 – 2026

Rebuilt the flow that gets field-service businesses paid. Three times.

Estimate, invoice, send, collect. Each round was earned by evidence: PostHog recordings, feedback from customers and our sales team, and usage data. We fixed one part at a time instead of shipping one big redesign. The number that moved most was the time to create and send an invoice.

Swivl Design SystemTeam of three

Cut design time by ⟨42%⟩ and made a full product revamp possible in six weeks.

Three of us built it from scratch: colours in three layers, 73 component pages and one rule for every pop-up. I owned the foundations, the component docs and that rule.

Customers 2.0CRM rebuild

A CRM rebuild that starts with the spreadsheet customers already have.

It started with a 70-point UX audit and research with seven stakeholders. It became CSV import that works on a phone, AI that matches columns for you, and clear rules for when one contact is both primary and billing.

One persistent panel across Swivl: voice-to-text capture, a daily digest, and generated UI that expands to full screen. Built on a 45-component mobile set and an AI rule book drawn from Google PAIR, Microsoft HAX and Shape of AI.
