How a user-centered approach leads to product success

The role

As a Product Designer, I played a key role in the success of the Internet Banking project, where the team overcame a challenging timeline and limited resources. My contribution was essential in ensuring that the design not only met but exceeded user expectations. Through close collaboration with cross-functional teams and autonomous decision-making, I drove the design process forward, delivering intuitive solutions that directly improved the user experience and overall product quality. This project highlighted my ability to work efficiently under pressure while maintaining a user-centered focus that was critical to the product’s success.

The
product

Internet Banking is a monetary processing platform designed for businesses. In addition to a robust back-end infrastructure, I was responsible for designing an intuitive and efficient front-end solution, focused on the needs of the teams managing the financial processing. The goal was to ensure an interface that provides ease of use, agility, and clarity in data presentation, enabling teams to perform their tasks more efficiently and accurately.

The
challenge

I built a robust solution from the ground up, prioritizing user-centered design principles. Through meetings and interviews with end users, I gained a deep understanding of their usage patterns, preferences, and pain points. I also conducted a study of platforms familiar to users to ensure the design was intuitive and easy to use.

I worked closely with Product Managers (PMs) and Technical Leads (TLs), dividing the project into stages and prioritizing based on the impact on user experience. I validated each feature with end users to ensure it met their expectations and enhanced their interaction with the solution.
