Senior product designer based in Bengaluru. 10+ years designing B2B and B2C products for Intuit, Lowe’s and Yahoo.
Two projects I would show you first.
Merchant Platform Lowe’s Enterprise SaaS
Lowe’s merchants awarded vendor items over email and Excel. I redesigned the legacy tool into one platform with item status, AI recommendations and bulk awarding.
Read case studySpreadsheet Sync Intuit QuickBooks FinTech
An Excel add-in for QuickBooks Online Advanced. I researched how CFOs, consultants and bookkeepers report, then designed the build, filter and sync flows.
Read case studyWhat AI does for me: explores options fast, sorts research notes into themes, drafts first-pass copy and catches the ideas I missed.
What it doesn’t: talk to users for me, decide what to build, or know what good looks like.
AI in the product Merchant Platform
AI recommendations rank vendor items, so merchants see what to award first.
AI agent Ask Pavan
Ask my portfolio anything and an AI answers from my real work.
Off the clock I take photos, paint and play table tennis. Every photo here taught me one rule I still use on screens.
Two palm trees frame the hut, so your eye goes straight to it.
In design: cards, borders and white space frame the one thing you want people to see.
A white bird on busy green. It pops because nothing else is white.
In design: one bold primary button. Everything else steps back.
Tyre tracks in the sand pull your eye to the sun.
In design: layout, arrows and steps lead people to the next action.
Sharp flower, soft background. You know where to look.
In design: size, weight and colour decide what people read first.
The temple sits on a third and the lake mirrors it. It feels calm.
In design: a clear grid and even spacing make a busy screen easy to scan.
I painted this oneOne blue in many shades, and one bright moon.
In design: a small colour set with one accent. A design system on one canvas.
Read the spin, adjust, hit again. A rally is a lot of tiny tests in a row.
In design: short loops win. Test early, learn, change, and test again.
I’m a senior product designer in Bengaluru. For over 10 years I’ve turned complex business processes into simple, human-centred products, from merchant tools for Lowe’s to a QuickBooks add-in at Intuit. I start with research, sketch a lot, and measure what changed.

I wrote a little letter for you.
Dear future teammate,
I’ve spent 10+ years turning messy business processes into simple products.
I start by sitting with the people who do the work: merchants, accountants, field agents.
Then I sketch, test and measure. At Lowe’s, that cut item setup time by 90%.
I’m open to Senior / Lead Product Design roles.
If that sounds like your team, let's talk.
Thanks for reading.
Pavan
