My work in enterprise product design.

I have 15+ years of experience in enterprise software and product design. Most recently, I was Lead Product Designer at JBPB Offshore (HikeOn), where I led four designers until June 2026. Before that, I spent six years at 3i Infotech. My work covers ERP workflows, design systems and AI-assisted product design.

Points of view.

Examples from my work
/

In the ERP work, I designed operational workflows across purchasing, orders and reporting.

/

The RFQ prototype makes supplier evidence and manager review part of the sourcing workflow.

/

For KPI configuration, domain selection constrains the fields a user can combine.

/

The design system connects three token layers and Vue.js components through shared naming and contribution standards.

At JBPB Offshore, I led four designers, conducted design reviews and mentored the team.

AI in my practice.

How I actually use it
  1. 01

    Research Synthesis Pipeline

    Record → transcribe → LLM-assisted theme extraction → manually challenge every theme against raw notes. A 6-hour research session produces a structured insight document in under 2 hours. I use this on every project.

  2. 02

    Design Brief Generation

    From a validated workflow map, I use an LLM to generate first-draft user stories, edge cases, and acceptance criteria. Then I refine with product and engineering in 45 minutes. This replaced a 3-hour grooming meeting.

  3. 03

    UI Copy System

    I keep a prompt template library for UI microcopy. Each prompt carries the component, the user's emotional state, and the outcome I want. First drafts are about 80% usable. I edit every line before handoff.

  4. 04

    Competitive Analysis Framework

    6 competing ERP platforms mapped in 3 hours using an AI-assisted research framework I built. Previously a day and a half. The saved time goes into user interviews. Not more desk research.

  5. 05

    Accessibility Pre-Audit

    Before handoff, every component goes through an AI-assisted WCAG check. Not to replace manual judgment, but to catch contrast failures, focus order problems and missing aria labels before the developer opens the file.

  6. 06

    8 AI Features in Production

    Not just using AI in my own process. Designing it into a live product. Smart inventory alerts, dynamic pricing suggestions, demand forecasting, customer churn scoring, AI-powered catalogue search, and a full AI-agent RFQ portal. All live with real users at HikeOn.
