Ramprasad Rangarajan โ UX Designer
I am a User Experience (UX) Designer with 12+ years of experience in end to end UX delivery for enterprise products. My special expertise within UX is in Data Visualization & Analytics, in a Data Platforms & Business Intelligence (BI) context. My profile comes with a broad exposure to various domains such as Retail, Supply Chain, eCommerce, Talent & HR, Real Estate, FinOps, RevOps, Cloud Infrastructure, Cybersecurity & Enterprise IT. ๐ ๐ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ผ๐๐๐น๐ผ๐ผ๐ธ While I have experienced a fulfilling career in UX Design so far, I have acquired a disability recently (Low Vision), which has reduced my eyesight & visual acuity. My career outlook is to pivot into roles that do not require a high degree of visual acuity & pixel precision. So I am exploring tangentially alternate roles that could leverage the transferable skills I bring from my past experience. I am intentionally open to a broad range of roles & career options, so that I can narrow down to the most sustainable path for the long term. ๐ฅ๐ผ๐น๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฝ๐น๐ผ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐บ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐: With a lived experience of Low Vision & a strong 12+ years of experience in User Experience (UX) Design & Human Computer Interaction (HCI) - I am motivated to pursue Accessibility (a11y) & Inclusive Design as an envelope domain. Some of the roles that I am interested within this are: Accessibility (a11y) Analyst (or) Engineer Inclusive Designer & Accessibility UX Designer UX Manager (Accessibility) UXR / User Researcher (Accessibility) Product (or) Program Manager (Accessibility initiatives) ๐๐น๐ฒ๐ ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฝ๐น๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐บ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ผ๐น๐ฒ๐ The above are some roles I could think of as logical extensions that leverage my 12+ years of experience as a UX Designer. I am open to exploring other roles that the DE&I teams think might be applicable as pivots. ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ป๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐ถ๐๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ I am cognizant of the up-skilling required for transitioning into niche roles. I am committed to the learning & development (L&D) needs & knowledge ramp ups that might be necessary for career transitions - be it in-house L&D, mentor-guided and externally through academia. If you handle (DE&I) Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Hiring initiatives & If you think we could have a very initial & exploratory role mapping conversation, I am happy to connect.
