Challenge
A blockchain-focused development company needed a clearer design process and stronger collaboration model between product, design, and technical stakeholders. The existing way of working lacked structure and created friction in delivery.
The Approach
I analyzed the current operating model, mapped workflow gaps, and helped shape a more deliberate design process adjusted to a technical product environment. The work focused on clarifying collaboration patterns, improving process flow, and introducing more structured design operations.
Outcome
The company gained a more structured design workflow, clearer collaboration between functions, and a stronger foundation for scaling product design work in a technically demanding environment.
Before and after

After
The team gained a more deliberate design workflow, clearer collaboration patterns, and a stronger operational foundation for product design in a technically demanding environment.
