Responsibility and Collaboration

As the project lead, I organized meetings, executed designs, and drove the entire process. I collaborated with two senior designers(including the design manager) and design director to align the component with UI Kit guidelines. Additionally, I partnered with two front-end engineers to uphold implementation quality.

Introduction

Deliver table components to unify over 30 versions of implementations, reducing development time by 40%.

I led the design process to deliver from the atomic to the component level, creating a scalable and responsive design pattern. This along with the codebase ensures adaptability across screens and full coverage of all use cases.
