Ogaga John — Design Manager
I'm a product designer with 5+ years of experience designing and shipping user-centered SaaS products across B2B and B2C startups. With a foundation in both brand and product design, I focus on building clear, scalable, and emotionally smart user experiences. Beyond my full-time role, I’ve built two design tools from scratch: → Designwhiz, an AI-powered design productivity tool used by 800+ designers, now evolving into a paid product → Rayna UI, a responsive component library system used by 10+ designers, built with a semantic structure for speed and scalability I bring a blend of execution, product thinking, and visual systems to everything I design. I’m excited about opportunities where design, product, and code meet and where I can keep building tools that help other designers move faster and smarter. ➡️Key Achievements (Including Product-Building) - At Outliant, reduced customer support issues by 50% and led a team of 4 designers across multiple product initiatives. - Boosted user retention by 20% through data-backed landing page iterations. - Increased brand perception and trust by 30% at Gigsnet through cross-functional collaboration and brand refreshes. - Mentored a team of 10 designers, instituting weekly critiques and trend reviews.
