Customer Journey Map for Careem Ride-hailing

We mapped two sections for new and returning users and included realtime GA funnel data and other sources as store reviews, user's feedback, and user-testing results.

To complete this initiative, I facilitated GA events audit, restructure, and creating GA events documentation.

Ride-hailing product design strategy

Together with the product team and the company leadership, we built a North Star experience for the Careem mobility platform. 

With a set of guiding principles, this vision helps us build product roadmaps, align stakeholders, and deliver a design that scales.

Design system in code

We are building an internal tool that allows us to use design tokens from Figma and generate production-ready styles for iOS, Android, and Web.

I'm driving adoption through frontend engineering across the company.

Careem for Business

I'm involved in the C4B project and helped shape the vision of the product.

As the business stream is growing rapidly I’m helping different teams from Bus and Delivery find their place in the portal, sharing base infrastructure and giving them space and freedom to build their own user scenarios.

Logo, communications, and fleet branding. The last was an exciting challenge: it had to be aligned with the main brand and also be cheap to put on the car.

Experience

Biglion

Biglion is a Russian Groupon with more than 3m monthly users. Here are some things I helped the company to achieve as an art director.

  • Atomic design system in code
  • Unified and automated marketing communications
  • A new look and adaptive web with custom typography system
  • Updated authentication flow with a 30% increase in sign up rate
  • Redesigned checkout stage had with a 10% boost in conversion rate across all platforms
  • Renewed iOS and Android apps which have 25% higher purchase conversion rate

Kalashnikov Media

I designed the corporate media for the most famous Russian defense manufacturing concern. Kalashnikov concern generates a lot of news, videos about high tech weapons, and we come up with the platform to share such things.

Ideofit

Ideofit is an iOS app that helps people to try on real glasses that they can buy right away. It uses a neural network to accurately place a generated 3D model of glasses on the user's face. My job was to scope the MVP, design the look and feel for the product, apps, and promo materials.

Storia

Storia is a social publishing startup. The product meant to help people create rich, immersive stories on the go, stories they can update part by part with pictures and videos. I led a product design team of two designers.

The Moscow Times

The Moscow Times is Russia’s leading, independent English-language publication. Its mission is to provide foreigners and internationally oriented Russians with breaking news, engaging stories, and well-researched journalism about the largest country on Earth.

I designed the adaptive layout with six breakpoints for every page to make sure the website will look great on every device.

Ramber&Co Intranet

The product provides a space to talk and share ideas for every employee of the company, which was around 1500 people at the moment of launch.

It was meant to throw a bridge between different divisions, as a place to share ideas and thought. It feels personal, and it motivates people to do more. It started as a fun project but became a part of people’s lives and brought a few awards to the team.
