About · Senior Product Designer & Design Engineer

I lead product design and build working software.

I’m Gideon Awolesi, a senior product designer and design engineer based in Poland. At Syndigo, I led product design and improved design operations. At Philips, QIAGEN, and Bayer, I used usability-engineering methods on healthcare software and medical-device workflows, where a mistake can have serious consequences. At Nifty League, I led the public site, the game dashboard, and the credit-system experience. I also take my own ideas from research and interface design all the way to working products. You can see that work under Products.

Approach

How I work

I start with the decision a person needs to make, what the business needs from that decision, and what can go wrong. I turn the evidence into flows and reusable interface patterns, then build a working prototype when a static design can’t answer the important questions. I can lead design at system level and still work through the states, accessibility details, and implementation constraints a product has to deal with before it ships.
