Top Rated Plus UI/UX Designer | 10+ Years in Product Design | Figma Specialist 1M+ Users Impacted | SaaS, Fintech, Healthcare Experience Data-Driven Design | Boosted Engagement, Improved Conversions AI-Assisted Product Design | Scalable Design Systems 60+ Projects Shipped | Bold, Scalable, High-Impact Solutions Startup Partner | Helped Raise Pre-Seed & Scale Fast Hi, I'm Jay, a UI/UX designer with 10+ years of experience building high-converting, user-centred products for web and mobile. I specialise in Figma and have designed products used by over a million people, across SaaS, fintech, healthcare, blockchain, and proptech. My work blends human-centred design thinking with data-driven UX strategy, and I lean on AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Figma AI, Figma Make, Google AI Studio) to move faster without cutting corners on quality, from research and ideation through to user flows, design systems, and interactive prototypes. I've worked with early-stage startups building their first product, and established companies untangling years of design debt. Either way, my job is the same: take messy requirements and turn them into clean, scalable design systems that developers can actually build from without guesswork. A few of my projects have gone on to help clients raise pre-seed funding and scale quickly, which tells me the work isn't just good-looking, it's doing its job. Clients value my product-led thinking, swift turnaround, and clear, open communication. Every project is approached strategically to ensure the design is not only visually appealing but also delivers on performance. I can start within 24 hours and take you from a rough concept all the way to a polished, fully interactive prototype ready for development handoff. If you want a product that looks great and performs even better, let's talk.

Ryan C.

AI & Fintech Product Manager | UX Designer | 0 to 1 SaaS | Ex-Spotify

London, United Kingdom
$70 per hour
4 jobs

Head of Product & UX who takes AI and fintech products from zero to launch. Strategy and hands-on design. I led product discovery on Spotify features used by tens of millions, helped Babylon Health grow from an early-stage startup to a $4B IPO, and was the first product hire at Blokur, through to its exit. I cover the full arc. Strategy and roadmap, the actual UX and interface design, prototyping, and build to validate an idea before a single engineer is committed. I work AI-native, using Claude Code, Lovable and Replit to turn a concept into a clickable prototype in hours, not weeks, so we test the idea before building it. That range is what's let me ship in regulated, high-stakes domains like fintech and healthcare, where the experience has to be both excellent and compliant. How I help: • 0-to-1 product & UX strategy - discovery, roadmap, MVP definition and interface design, with compliance built in from day one rather than bolted on later. • AI features that actually ship - turning AI/LLM capability into a product you can release in a regulated environment: governance, explainability, the audit trail. At Babylon, I took AI services into live NHS and international clinical settings. • Rapid de-risking - I prototype concepts in a sandbox with synthetic data to validate desirability and regulatory feasibility before engineering starts. You fail cheaply in discovery, never in production. Selected experience: • Spotify - led product discovery on consumer features used by tens of millions. • Babylon Health - led discovery and delivery across new-market rollouts (US, Canada) plus AI clinical services to NHS hospitals in the UK and health centres in Rwanda; supported the company from early-stage startup to a $4B IPO. • Blokur - first product hire; built the product function and data-driven prioritisation, supporting the company from early stage through to acquisition. • SongBits - Head of Product & UX, building fractional ownership of music: fintech, blockchain and consumer product fused into one. I work with early-stage fintech, AI and SaaS founders who need senior product and design judgement without a full-time hire - with particular depth in music, consumer and Web3 products. Start with a paid product/UX audit, scale into a full 0-to-1 engagement, or bring me on fractionally. Tell me what you're building and the outcome you need - I'll map your first two weeks before we start.
