About

I design products people actually use, and I build them too. Currently a Behavioral Designer at Swiggy Instamart, where I do on-ground User Research and communicate them to the behavioral science team, I also help them craft experiments, design creative assets for them, and run UX audits on internal tools. I work alongside behavioral scientists to run experiments so that they eventually scale nationally. I am also a Design Fellow at Bitshala (Saving Satoshi). My unfair advantage? I started as a developer. That means I prototype my own interactions, ship faster than most designers, and can sit with engineers to debug when things break. I don't just hand off Figma files, I understand what's feasible, what's fast, and what's worth the effort. Some proof points: Selected for Google Summer of Code '24 with Wagtail CMS Worked on Mulesoft as AMTS intern at Salesforce Design Fellow at Bitshala Studying at IIT BHU How I work: I talk to users before opening Figma. I validate with real people, not assumptions. I obsess over micro-interactions and test relentlessly. No design is done until it's been used in the wild. What I bring to the table: End-to-end product design (research → prototype → validation → iteration) Experimentation mindset (A/B testing, data-driven decisions) Fluency with engineers (I speak their language because I was one) ☕ Always down for coffee chats about design systems, experimentation, or what makes products click 📩 DM me or email: nandiniarora584@gmail.com
