Overview

As the lead product designer for the Eco product within the Spot platform, I collaborate closely with product managers and analysts to transform complex business requirements into intuitive, scalable experiences. My role involves crafting workflows that simplify cloud cost optimization while ensuring consistency with our design system.

Balancing functionality with usability, I focus on creating interfaces that empower users to manage their cloud investments efficiently, without unnecessary complexity. From data visualization to seamless automation, my design approach keeps clarity and efficiency at the forefront.

Accessibility markup for devs

The Figmocks include an accessibility layer that can be toggled on/off as needed to provide the developers with WCAG compliance information including landmark sections, headings and focus order.

Including this information helps the team build ADA-compliant products that pass accessibility standards and work with assistive technology.
