Platforms and complex systemsFintech and payments

Senior Product Designer with 10+ years focused on complex platforms, design systems and AI-assisted products. Cross-platform experience spans iOS, native Android, responsive web and Windows/macOS/Linux desktop, with implementation review and design QA alongside engineers. Recent proof: Kolibri content import reached 85% better discoverability and 60% fewer failed imports in usability testing; systems I lead for our restaurants processed NGN 1.66bn across 31,324 paid orders. I prototype in code when working behaviour answers the question faster than static screens.
