Completed a comprehensive 2-week design engineering assessment for Ittybit, a cutting-edge devtools platform for media files. This project involved both visual redesign and technical implementation to enhance user experience and establish consistent design systems.
Scope of Work
UI/UX Redesign: Redesigned multiple webapp screens with improved typography, spacing, and visual consistency
User Flow Optimization: Rethought navigation patterns, modal interactions, and panel systems for better UX
Component Design: Created a well-structured component library with reusable design elements
Implementation Planning: Developed a strategic plan for rolling out design improvements across the entire application
Code Implementation: Translated designs into production-ready code with attention to detail and polish
Key Deliverables
✅ Figma Design System: Complete redesign of key webapp screens with consistent styling
✅ Component Library: Reusable UI components with detailed specifications
✅ Interactive Prototypes: Demonstration of user flows and interactions
✅ Production Code: Clean, maintainable implementation of the new designs
✅ Implementation Roadmap: Strategic plan for company-wide design system adoption
Technical Skills Applied
Design Tools: Figma for UI/UX design and prototyping
Frontend Development: Modern web technologies for implementation
User Experience: Flow optimization and interaction design
Code Quality: Clean, maintainable, and well-documented code
Project Outcome
The client was extremely satisfied with both the design quality and implementation approach. The project successfully demonstrated how a design engineer can provide more value than separate design and development roles by:
Ensuring designs are implementation-friendly from the start
Maintaining design consistency through code
Reducing handoff inefficiencies between design and development
Delivering both visual excellence and technical quality
