Designing complex
digital products with UX, systems thinking & AI.

17+ years in digital design and visual communication, with 7+ years focused on UX/UI and product design for enterprise SaaS — complex workflows, design systems and accessible, information-dense tools. I work AI-natively: faster exploration, human judgment.

01Selected work

Six projects, curated for the thinking they show

Diagnostics, enterprise assessment, clinical review, identity governance, financial intelligence and AI commerce. Each project opens its full case study document in a new tab.

02AI + Design

An AI-native design workflow, not an AI gimmick

AI participates at specific points in my process. It widens exploration, accelerates prototyping and helps evaluate accessibility and consistency — the decisions stay human.

  1. 01

    Explore

    Generate alternative flows, structures and framings quickly, then judge them against product constraints.

  2. 02

    Structure

    Pressure-test information architecture, naming and grouping before committing to an interface.

  3. 03

    Generate

    Move from structure to screens without spending the day on scaffolding.

  4. 04

    Prototype

    Turn concepts into interactive experiences that can be used, not just reviewed.

  5. 05

    Evaluate

    A custom accessibility agent in Cursor flags accessibility issues and inconsistencies in the emerging build.

  6. 06

    Decide

    Strategic, ethical, contextual and product decisions stay human. AI expands exploration; it does not replace judgement.

03Design systems

Foundations → Tokens → Components → Patterns → Product

Design-system practice from primitives through to adoption, including the IQVIA design system (IDS): approximately 300 components, design tokens, reusable patterns and WCAG 2.2 accessibility patterns.

  1. 01

    Foundations

    Type scale, spacing, colour, elevation and accessible contrast defined once and documented.

  2. 02

    Tokens

    Semantic tokens that let product teams theme and evolve without redefining decisions.

  3. 03

    Components

    Approximately 100+ components in the IQVIA  design system (IDS), with states and usage guidance.

  4. 04

    Patterns

    Reusable workflow patterns and WCAG 2.2 accessibility patterns for recurring enterprise problems.

  5. 05

    Product

    Adoption through critique, review and migration of legacy designs into the modern library.

04Experience & leadership

Leading design inside complex product organizations

Senior Experience Design Manager

Sep 2021 – Jun 2026

Led end-to-end UX/UI design across enterprise healthcare SaaS platforms, owning strategy, research, information architecture, interaction design, high-fidelity prototyping, validation and developer handoff. Led and mentored designers through 1:1s, critiques, project reviews and design-system adoption workshops while remaining hands-on across product initiatives. Built and maintained an enterprise design system with reusable components, design tokens and WCAG 2.2-compliant patterns, reducing UI inconsistencies by approximately 50% across 4 product squads (measured via quarterly design audit). Transformed a manual PDF-driven clinical review workflow into a responsive enterprise web application by rebuilding information architecture, user flows and interaction patterns, and validating high-fidelity prototypes with global clinical teams. Integrated AI-assisted workflows into discovery, synthesis, ideation, documentation, prototyping, accessibility reviews and stakeholder communication.

05Recommendations

What colleagues say about working with me

Unedited recommendations from design leaders, product designers and partners I've shipped complex enterprise products with — collected on LinkedIn.

Shrikant and I worked together for 3 years on a very large health enterprise product to manage and submit drug labels globally to health agencies. Shrikant demonstrated a strong capacity to learn complex business and technology concepts fast. He also adopted new skills quickly as we needed them. That expanded later into learning how to use AI to create and validate new product features. Shrikant was also very reliable and accountable. He was very collaborative and a pleasure to work with. I definitely would recommend him to any team that needs to move fast and adapt to changing times.

I've worked with Shrikant for a long time, and he's just a fantastic product designer. He's super easy to collaborate with — constantly, always bringing fresh ideas. When we worked together, he was always pushing us to think bigger, helping us all level up. He put a lot of time into making space for the team to share ideas and get better together. He's also super quick at picking up new tools — when AI platforms came in, he jumped right on them and used them to make everything smoother and faster. Shrikant's got a great attitude, a real drive to learn, and he just makes working together a breeze. I'd recommend him in a heartbeat.
