UI/UX | Product Designer

Making complex flows feel simple.

I'm Polashi and I've been designing digital products for over 5 years. Right now, I'm a UX Designer at Sigfyn, a fintech company.

Process

From the first question to a working product.

Here's how I work through a problem, from understanding it to testing a solution and getting it ready to ship.

  1. Step 01

    Research

    Understand the people, the product and the problem.

    • Conduct user research to understand users’ needs, goals, pain points and behaviours.
    • Study competitor apps and how they work
    • Learn the business and regulatory side with the team
  2. Step 02

    Define

    Decide who we're designing for and which problem to solve first.

    • Decide the target users with the team
    • Pick the most important problems to solve first
    • Park the rest for later releases
  3. Step 03

    Ideate and Design

    Map it, sketch it, then make it real.

    • Map user flows and information architecture
    • Create wireframes and interactive prototypes
    • Use the design system to keep patterns consistent across screens
  4. Step 04

    Test

    Put it in front of real people before it ships.

    • Review the design with the team
    • Test with internal users and relevant participants
    • Observe where people get stuck and refine the flow
  5. Step 05

    Ship and Measure

    Hand off cleanly, launch and learn from the numbers.

    • Collaborate with developers throughout implementation
    • Share clear specs and reusable design components
    • Track drop-offs and use the findings to improve the experience

About

Tech by training. Design by choice.

I enjoy turning complex problems into simple, intuitive experiences. I believe the best design often goes unnoticed, when everything flows naturally and just works the way people expect it to.

I joined Sigfyn early as its founding designer, where I built the product experience and design system from the ground up. Before moving into design, I studied computer applications at NIT Calicut.

Expertise

What I bring to your product.

01

0 to 1 product design

From the first wireframe to a live app. That's what I did for Sigfyn, on web, mobile and tablet.

02

Design systems

I built the design system behind Sigfyn, giving its screens and components a consistent set of patterns to build on.

03

Brand and websites

How a product looks, and the first impression it makes. I designed the Idlewise brand and website, and the Sigfyn website.

04

Research-led UX

Finding where people get stuck and why, using data and real users, then fixing the flow. My GPay case study shows how I work through a similar problem.

B2C fintech · Marketing website

Sigfyn website

The marketing website for Sigfyn, a wealth management product for individual investors.

Sigfyn uses AI to keep an eye on your investments, and SEBI-registered advisors check its suggestions before anything happens. The website is where most people meet Sigfyn for the first time, so it has to explain that clearly, feel trustworthy, and lead them to the app.

Case study · Personal project

GPay case study

A personal UX case study exploring how Google Pay could make failed UPI payments easier to understand.

We've all had a payment fail and wondered whether the money left our account. I looked at that moment and how it could feel less stressful. The full case study is on Behance.
