About
Hi, I’m Pavel, a Senior Product Designer with 8 years building digital products people actually understand.
My work is driven by curiosity and systems thinking, with a belief that the best design removes friction without drawing attention to itself. I’ve led UX across AI platforms and consumer products reaching 350M+ users, and spent 450+ hours mentoring designers early in their careers.

How I Work
Good design isn’t just a clean layout. It’s simplifying complex problems, giving information clear structure, and building something people understand at a glance, whether that’s an AI platform, an enterprise SaaS workflow, or a conversion-focused mobile journey.
Design doesn’t happen in a vacuum. There’s usually an existing backend, a tight timeline, incomplete information, or a product direction that’s still evolving. Working well inside those constraints, not around them, is most of the job.
I care about accessible, scalable design, not just beautiful screens.
Tool stack
AI has automated a lot of surface-level design work, so now the value lies in systems thinking and the ability to translate complexity into clarity. I am constantly exploring and mastering new tools. Here’s my current rotation.
From My Lens
I notice patterns, details, and flow in cities, spaces, and products.
What people say
“I had the pleasure of working with Pavel on several product design tasks. He has a strong eye for clean, practical UI design and is able to turn product requirements and feedback into clear Figma designs quickly. What stood out to me was his ability to move fast while still keeping the user experience simple and well thought through. He is also very forward thinking in how he works. He understands how to use AI agents to accelerate his workflow in a way that feels genuinely integrated, not bolted on.”

“Pavel was an amazing mentor, and really helped me get my ducks in a row for a big interview where I ended up landing the role. We practised questions, and he helped me to make them much stronger and interview-focused, which was a complete game changer. Not only did we speak about interview settings, but we also had overall discussions around design and UX, which helped me get back into the design mindset. He was extremely understanding and helpful through all steps of the way.”
