About Jitendra

I am a hybrid User Experience and Product Designer with 15 years of experience in developing digital consumer-centric products and Design Thinking approach in an Agile/Scrum environment and participatory design & AB testing of various user research methods and approaches in problem-solving and understanding the product ecosystem. I also have experience in mentoring development teams from building, scoping and setting definable key results to releasing final products

I am passionate about Usability, Accessibility; Research-Based approach to problem solving and create design value for the user.

I am a proponent of the User-Centric, Research-Based approach to problem solving and design. In recent years, I have been working in the roles of UX Strategy and Design-Leadership.

This website is where I showcase some of my work and write about life as a Designer, UX Professional, and amateur photographer.

My work is entirely based around user-centric design separated into three: discovery, design, and testing.

Experience
Human-Centered Design

I rigorously follow Human-Centered (or User-Centered) Design methodology because it puts the user in the center of the design process. User Research and Testing become an integral part of the process.

Design Thinking

I rigorously follow Human-Centered (or User-Centered) Design methodology because it puts the user in the center of the design process. User Research and Testing become an integral part of the process.

UX Strategy

Thinking the bigger picture. Identifying user-needs & pain-points. Defining the goals and vision of a product. A well-researched UX Strategy helps improve the User Experience across several touchpoints of a product or service.

UX Research

Primary and Secondary, Qualitative and Quantitative research go hand-in-hand. You cannot create a design informed only by the analytics. Researching with real users help build useful, usable, and delightful products.

Usability

Usability is the most important aspect of a good User Experience. Without a usable product, no amount of cosmetic UI will improve the experience. I use Usability Heuristics and Cognitive Walkthroughs to measure the usability of a product in addition to doing User Testing

Accessibility

Access to information is a human right. I have been passionate about Accessibility from very early in my career. I am a proponent of designers paying attention to General Accessibility (Contrast, Readability, Semantics, etc.) and WCAG Guidelines.

Usability Testing

I take joy in seeing the users ripping apart the initial designs because it helps me design something better in the next iteration. A product design without testing is just a visual design created with assumptions.

Design Agile

One cannot put a designer in an engineering Agile/ Scrum Mind set and call it a day. Managing a design team requires defining the design workflow, review process, and hand-off methods. A good DesignOps helps orchestrate the processes and flows of a design team so that working together is as fun as it is productive.

Information Architecture

Content Organization is Design. A well-organized, categorized content makes the design coherent and makes the UI Design much easier. IA is an integral part of the design process.

UI & Interaction Design

Whether it is low-fidelity wireframes or highly polished Visual Designs, I have been designing digital products since 2005. The design is incomplete without a prototype that shows how it should work. I can also develop functional prototypes using HTML and CSS that provide guidelines for every interaction and animation.
