Sounak Sikdar — UX Designer
👋 Hi, I’m Sounak Sikdar, a Senior UX Designer & Researcher with 7+ years of experience designing enterprise and B2B digital products, including human-in-the-loop AI systems where accuracy, trust, and user control are critical. I currently work at Skillsoft, designing AI-assisted workflows that accelerate user tasks while keeping accountability firmly with users. My work focuses on making AI explainable, traceable, and correctable, especially in complex, high-impact workflows. What I specialize in: • Human-in-the-loop AI UX with manual override, validation, and recovery paths • AI-assisted decision-making systems, not black-box automation • Designing for AI failure, uncertainty, and edge cases • Explainable and trustworthy AI experiences for enterprise users • Translating domain logic into usable, scalable interaction systems • Deep user research to model real-world constraints that inform AI behavior Previously, I’ve worked on AI-assisted diagnostic and recommendation systems for engineering and enterprise users, where AI detects inconsistencies, explains what’s wrong, suggests corrective actions, and allows users to manually validate or override outcomes. My design philosophy is simple: AI should augment human expertise, not replace it. I treat AI as a learning system—guided by clear constraints, feedback loops, and user-led correction—to reduce risk and improve long-term reliability. 💡 I enjoy working on: • AI-assisted enterprise workflows • Complex decision-making systems • Trust, explainability, and usability in AI • Responsible AI UX at scale 📌 Always open to discussions around AI UX, system design, and building responsible AI-driven products.
