Work Experience

2023 — Now

When was the last time you heard “data” and “good design” in the same sentence? Working on changing that, among other things. More details soon...

2022 — 2023

Worked closely with the company leadership to lay out the foundation for the in-house electric car project. With a team of designers and product managers, led the research on understanding the global automotive UX landscape

2021 — 2022

Reporting to the Chief Product Officer, led design on multiple projects from conception to delivery across businesses. Also, actively involved in team-building, hiring, and process design

  • Ola Scooter GTM — discovery (website, test rides) and purchase (financing, insurance, accessories, delivery)

  • MoveOS 2 — v2 of operating system for electric vehicles (deep focus on user customization and personalization)

  • Ola Cabs driver app revamp — redesigning the cab allocation, profile, and earnings experience

  • Super-app UX — unifying the experience for all Ola verticals

2020 — 2021
  • MoveOS 1 — founding designer for the in-house electric vehicle operating system. Worked on defining the key flows (navigation, settings, infotainment). MoveOS currently powers over 250,000 vehicles on road

  • Ola Cars — marketplace for used cars (resell and purchase experience)

  • Ola Foods — hyperlocal food and grocery delivery app experience

    (double-promoted to Lead Designer in a year)

2019 — 2020

Lenin once said, "There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen". A bit of hyperbole, but my time here feels similar when I look back.

It was the time when Hotstar was transitioning from 'Go Solo' to family-friendly Disney goodness. Worked on the kids mode and Disney+ related updates on the web, mobile and TV app experience

2016 — 2019
Freelance Designer

Worked with 25+ clients on anything and everything design: from SaaS platforms and MVP consumer apps to book covers, brand guides, and pitch decks. Over time, realized that it makes more sense to think of myself as a business person who can design, rather than a designer who can do business.

Select clients / associations: Preflet, Kalamos Literary Services, Slursh app, Artifacia, UK Research and Innovation, Ordnance Survey Ireland

I love talking about this phase. If you are someone looking for guidance (how to get started as a freelancer, do’s and don’ts, challenges)… feel free to send a message :)
