Elio Colligiani — UX Designer
My portfolio: www.eliocolligiani.com ==================================== UX Designer & Engineer | 14 Years Engineering DNA | FinTech Specialist I bridge the gap between technical logic, clear communication, and human-centered design. For 12 years at ION Group, I worked as a Full-Stack Developer, managing the end-to-end lifecycle of enterprise systems: from back-end architecture in Java and C++ to front-end implementation in C#. The Shift to UX Design In the last 3 years, I shifted my focus to UX Design, with particular focus on Research and Architecture. This was a deliberate move to gain a broader perspective, moving beyond specific technical implementations to solve for the overall user journey and systemic friction. I now apply an engineering mindset to architect interfaces that are logically sound, technically feasible, and optimized for the person behind the screen. Key Value Points: Technical Perspective: Having built both the internal logic and the user interface for over a decade, I design with a practical understanding of data flows and technical constraints. Communication & Documentation: I enjoy the "human" side of the product: writing external content (release notes, user guides), delivering demos, and facilitating collaboration between cross-functional teams. Evidence-Based Research: I approach UX Research with analytical rigor: using interviews and wireframing to validate design decisions. My goal is to translate mission-critical workflows into usable systems. Core Stack: UX: Information Architecture (IA), User Research, Journey Mapping, Figma, Axure. Engineering: Java, C++, C#, plus early experience in Web Dev (HTML, CSS, JS, PHP). Languages: Italian, English Beyond the Screen: Outside of architecture and code, I am driven by a lifelong interest in art, aesthetics and interpersonal connection. I may catch me playing guitar, trumpet, collecting vinyl, or capturing moments through photography and video: all ways to explore how rhythm, composition, and harmony (like good design) impact our daily lives.
