About Me

About Me

Sohail Akhtar Product Designer · 9+ yrs

"I don't design for features, I design for outcomes."

By combining Product Strategy, User Research, and User Experience design, I help teams transform complex challenges into intuitive products that reduce friction, increase adoption, and create measurable business value. Working closely with founders, product managers, engineers, and stakeholders, I bridge user needs, business goals, and technical possibilities to build products people trust and rely on.

AI-Augmented Workflows

01

Observe

Watch how people actually use the product.

02

Find friction

Spot exactly where adoption breaks down.

03

Design

Balance user needs with technical reality.

04

Measure & iterate

Validate with real users, then refine.

This is the same loop behind every project below.

Problems I solve

My Product Design Approach

X:01

Observe users

I watch how people actually use products—not how we think they'll use them. Where do they hesitate? Where do they get stuck? That's where the real problem is.

X:02

Identify friction

Every friction point is an opportunity. Confusing flows. Missing information. Unclear next steps. I find what's blocking adoption and retention.

X:03

Design better flows

Then I design—but not in isolation. I balance what users need with what's technically feasible. The solution serves both, not one or the other.

X:03

Measure adoption

Did it work? I measure what matters: Do users adopt it? Do they stay? Do they recommend it? If the answer isn't yes, we iterate.

X:05

Test thoroughly

Validation isn't optional. Every design decision is tested with real users to ensure the solution actually solves the problem we identified.

X:06

Scale with purpose

Once proven, I help scale solutions across teams and platforms while maintaining the design integrity and user focus that made them work.
