Product designer who helped take an enterprise security platform from zero to public launch. One of the first two designers at Secure.com, where I've owned the attack-path, risk, penetration-testing and workflow modules end to end and grew from junior to Product Designer II. I prototype in the production React app so engineering starts from working code.

Experience

Secure.com (Dubai) · Founding Designer (1 of 2), Product Designer II
  • One of the first two designers on a 0→1 security platform, from first concept through public launch in Dec 2025. Joined as a junior and grew to Product Designer II while owning the attack-path, risk tracker, penetration-testing and workflow modules end to end.
  • Led Mindy, the platform's AI agent experience: an analyst that works beside the user as a second cursor and hands every decision back to them. Designed and prototyped it inside the production app, where our security, engineering and product teams tried it hands-on. The CEO signed it off as the direction for Secure.com's AI agents, and it's now in engineering.
  • Redesigned Risk Tracker (now live) around the asset in 4 to 6 weeks, after our security SME stopped my first version, and built the UI in production React. Findings from across the platform now roll up to the asset they put at risk, scored inherent to residual.
  • Build feature modules directly in production code (React, TypeScript, Tailwind) with Claude Code on dedicated git branches. Front-end engineers review, wire the APIs and merge, so engineering starts from working UI instead of a Figma handoff.
  • Designed the Figma prototypes and product videos for Secure.com's 2024 funding pitch to Disrupt.com, the MENA venture builder behind its $4.5M pre-seed (announced Nov 2025).
PureSquare · Associate Product Designer
  • Built a comprehensive design system for PureDome (B2B VPN) that made designing and shipping new features substantially faster and more consistent.
  • Used Mixpanel to find a valuable feature people weren't using because it was buried too deep. Moved it earlier in the flow, which lifted its adoption.

Earlier: Product Design Intern, Designist (2023). Center for Advanced Research in Engineering (2022 to 2023), UX for AI factory-scheduling software.
