Product Designer · Dubai & Abu Dhabi 8+ Years of Experience

I make complicated systems feel obvious.

I'm Sarvesh Sawardekar, a Product Designer & UI/UX Designer turning dense enterprise logic, compliance constraints, and high-friction citizen and banking workflows into seamless, intuitive human experiences.

Over the last 8+ years, I've designed citizen-facing digital services for Abu Dhabi's TAMM government platform (Family Development Foundation via Birbal AI), mission-critical multi-tenant banking platforms for tier-1 institutions (National Bank of Kuwait, Riyad Bank, National Bank of Fujairah, ADIB, ANZ via Intellect Design Arena), and consumer mobile ecosystems (ICICI Lombard, HalaPark 2.0, and Aura Gold). My approach blends deep domain empathy, bilingual Arabic/English accessibility (WCAG AA), and modern AI-accelerated design workflows (Claude, Figma MCP) to translate complex systems into effortless, production-ready interfaces.
