  • I was responsible for building the design system for Sam’s Club Mexico. It was my very first time exploring and working on the design system from scratch. It was a great learning opportunity where I started solo and after couple of months I had team member working with me on the same. Apart from design system for Sam’s mobile I got a chance to work on various data dashboards on web as well as on mobile platform.
  • I did work also majorly on data visualisation for analytical information. I worked heavily on visual design and that was enlightening as till the date I had mainly worked on user experience and less on visual design. I enjoyed my time working here, learned a lot of things.

Treebo hotels

Sr. UX Designer

Jul 2016Jan 2018 · 1 yr 6 mos · Bangaon Area, India

  • After a very short journey with startup, i soon joined treebo which i felt was a great and different product to work on. My very first project was redesigning a website, where i did competitive analysis in the beginning and then understood all the user scenarios and use cases provided by product managers. I was responsible to come up with the user experience and delivering a wireframes and high fidelity screens.
  • Soon after the website project, i was working on mobile site as it is very important to have similar visual language on all the platforms. I did perform usability on mobile site, got to know what were the current loopholes and then worked towards enhancing those as well as adding few more useful features. After mobile site, i worked on internal product which would help hotel partners (user type) manage their finances. I also got a freedom to do Usability on existing website, iOS app which helped me make my design direction more valid.

  • From being a part of a very big team to moving to a startup culture was quite different but a good experience. I was the only UX person who was dedicately working on the all the products they had.

I initiated with some paper prototype, design conceptualisation, wireframes and then visual design. Meanwhile i was also working little bit on marketing front which involved creating banners, social media posters.

  • This was my first full time job. I was always curious about working in e-commerce so when i got the opportunity to work in one, i did not think twice to get in and work on some amazing feature ideas and product. Snapdeal had a massive design team and i was a part of the web team.
  • My very first project was redesigning for their seller dashboard , i started with competitive analysis and then talking to sellers (user interviews) as it was important for me to know what was not going right and then finally worked on the user experience part of it. After that project i was involved in working on consumer front of the website like adding on to some features or redesigning some existing flows. I was a part of Usability Lab as well, where i use to talk to lot of real time users/consumers and take their valuable feedback on enhancing current/existing features on all the platforms.
