Product Designer

I worked as a UI/UX Designer on the Craftgate project for four years. During this time, I built a comprehensive Design System in Figma with over 1,000 scalable and continuously evolving components. From the foundation of Craftgate, I designed the website, admin, and merchant panels, and also led the mobile application design process.


While designing all user facing interfaces that shape the first touchpoints with Craftgate, I conducted customer focused meetings to analyze users’ needs and feedback specific to the product. Based on these insights, I developed new features and gained valuable experience in user experience design. This process strengthened my customer centric mindset and enhanced my ability to solve complex problems creatively and effectively.

UI/UX Designer

I joined the TalentMondo project at the beginning of the MVP phase as a UI/UX Designer. I completed the key visual design work to establish a consistent brand identity, created wireframes and prototypes for product pages, and participated in usability testing. I also prepared competitor analysis reports and collaborated with the product and marketing teams on the improvement process and product roadmap. 




During the same period, I contributed to the development of three different products, including EvdekiBakıcım and Proteco, by taking part in periodic design projects under the same organization
