About

Hi👋! I’m Usama, a Product Designer with 4+ years of experience designing user-centered digital products that drive real business outcomes. From improving user engagement and reducing churn to streamlining complex workflows for scale. My background in computer science and passion for usability engineering allow me to bridge the gap between product strategy, user needs, and scalable design execution. Over the years, I’ve contributed to a range of industries including fintech, logistics, and travel, where I led design for products like checkout and payments experiences, order management systems (OMS), warehouse dashboards (WMS), and online booking platforms. Whether it's simplifying multi-step payment flows, architecting operations tools, or improving conversion funnels, my approach is rooted in design thinking, backed by research, and aligned with measurable KPIs. I specialize in: End-to-end product design (research → wireframes → high-fidelity UI) Design systems & component libraries for scale UX writing, usability testing, and rapid prototyping Collaborating closely with cross-functional teams (Product, Engineering, Growth) I’m fluent in tools like Figma, Framer, Notion, and Miro, and I thrive in environments where user experience directly impacts the business. Whether designing for first-time users or enterprise operators, I aim to deliver clarity, consistency, and results.
