Experience

1. UI/UX Designer

   Jan 2025 — Aug 2025

   AvnologySaudi Arabia — Remote

   Architected a 120+ component library, produced 1,400+ screens across 10 projects, led end-to-end design processes, designed 30+ interaction patterns, and owned requirements analysis, Information Architecture, and Figma Dev Mode handoff.

   • Architected a 120+ component library with semantic Figma Variable layers and multi-mode tokens, enabling 3 concurrent product teams to ship consistent UI without per-screen reviews.
   • Produced 1,400+ screens across 10 projects — SaaS dashboards, 2 mobile apps, responsive websites — applying RTL-first layout logic, bidirectional typography, and Arabic-market UX conventions.
   • Led end-to-end process: user research, personas, low-fidelity wireframes, high-fidelity (hi-fi) UI, and structured user story mapping to align client goals with final solutions.
   • Designed 30+ interaction patterns — loading states, form validation, navigation transitions — mapped to specific user action triggers; earned client sign-off in product demos.
   • Owned requirements analysis, Information Architecture (IA) and Figma Dev Mode handoff, leveraging HTML/CSS/JS knowledge to streamline communication with the development team.

2. Product Designer

   Jul 2024 — Feb 2025

   WebJetXUSA — Remote

   Designed responsive SaaS dashboard screens, restructured Information Architecture, collaborated in two-week sprint cycles, and introduced shared Figma component vocabulary and annotation conventions.

   • Designed 30+ responsive SaaS dashboard screens applying WCAG 2.1 AA contrast standards; restructured Information Architecture (IA) to reduce navigation depth by 2 steps per primary task flow.
   • Delivered against two-week sprint cycles with zero missed handoff deadlines over 8 months, embedded in a cross-functional US-timezone team of product managers, engineers, and QA.
   • Introduced shared Figma component vocabulary and annotation conventions, reducing design-to-developer ambiguity and shortening QA revision rounds on the first system iteration.

3. UI/UX Instructor

4. Product Designer

   Aug 2023 — Nov 2023

   MYM CompanyEgypt — On-site

   Contributed to a large-scale product by co-owning Information Architecture, Interaction Design patterns, component alignment, and cross-flow visual consistency. Facilitated ideation sessions using Design Thinking methods during a high-ambiguity scoping phase.

   • Contributed to a large-scale product (2 primary flows, 2 sub-flows) — co-owning Information Architecture (IA), Interaction Design patterns, component alignment, and cross-flow visual consistency.
   • Facilitated ideation sessions using Design Thinking methods (sketching sprints, affinity mapping) that unblocked the team during a high-ambiguity scoping phase.

5. UI/UX Designer

   Oct 2023 — Nov 2023

   Coding SamuraiRemote

   Sole designer across the full product cycle, delivering complete design handoff 27% ahead of schedule through parallel low-fidelity wireframing and high-fidelity Visual Design production.

   • Sole designer across the full product cycle — user story mapping, low-fidelity wireframes, high-fidelity (hi-fi) UI and interactive Figma prototype. Applied A/B testing principles to evaluate two navigation structures; simplified from 5 steps to 3, achieving stakeholder sign-off in the first review.
   • Delivered complete design handoff 27% ahead of schedule by running low-fidelity wireframing and high-fidelity Visual Design production as parallel workstreams.
