Dune Security was building an internal security monitoring platform to visualize access permissions and manage potential risks across sensitive systems. I was brought in as the lead designer to build a clean, understandable user experience for technical and non-technical audiences alike.

Process
Discovery
I worked closely with the Dune team to understand their user needs — from engineers needing granular system access data to leadership needing a higher-level view of risks. I audited the initial product designs to identify pain points and opportunities.
Exploration
Through iterative wireframes and prototypes, I tested different ways of visualizing complex permission hierarchies. We prioritized clarity and fast access to critical information.
Design System Creation
To ensure consistency and scalability, I developed a modular design system of UI components — from table structures to empty states — providing the Dune team with a foundation for future product extensions.
The Dune Security design system takes a modular approach to content organization, ensuring scanability and scalability.
Final Design
The new UI dramatically cleaned up the platform, offering intuitive flows, simplified data tables, and a more modern, minimal look. I documented key usage guidelines for the team to maintain quality after handoff.
