Productdesigner forthe AI era.

I design AI-native products and write the code that ships them — because handoff is where most good ideas quietly die. Right now that's at Ginthi.ai, and on my own products like BestAnswers.AI.

001 About

I design the thing,
then I build the thing.

I started as a designer at Smiths Detection, drawing the service consoles that maintenance engineers across Europe, APAC, and North America use every day. Then I noticed where quality leaks out — the distance between a design and the shipped thing. So I learned to close it myself: first the React in front, then the Java and Python behind it.

That habit compounded. Today I'm the product designer and AI specialist at Ginthi.ai, designing and developing a live platform with production traffic flowing the whole time. Nights and weekends, I build with AI: BestAnswers.AI puts four models in a room and makes them argue before you get an answer.

And because the fastest way to sharpen a workflow is to teach it, I run AI Tools for Builders — live sessions where designers and developers learn to ship with AI the way I do daily.

    Product Designer — AI specialist (UI/UX)

    Ginthi.ai

    I own design and front-end build for Ginthi’s web platform — taking features from concept through interface to shipped React, and building the AI tooling that lets a small team move quickly. Designing and developing the same surface means there’s no handoff to lose intent in.

  2. 2023 – 2026

    UI/UX Designer & Developer

    Smiths Detection

    Designed and built service consoles used daily by engineers across Europe, APAC, and North America. React, Java, and Python behind the screens.

  3. 2019 – 2023

    B.Tech, Electronics & Instrumentation

    SASTRA University

    Robotics and IoT on Raspberry Pi, OpenCV, and embedded C. Systems thinking that still shapes how I build.

Three things
worth your time.

BestAnswers.AI interface

AI Product · Live

BestAnswers.AI

Four AIs argue. You get the strongest answer.

Ask one model and you get one confident voice — right or wrong. BestAnswers.AI convenes four AI personas (Researcher, Engineer, Friend, Academic), lets them debate in parallel, and a meta-judge merges the strongest reasoning into a single answer with the disagreements left visible. Trust through transparent disagreement, not single-source confidence.

  • Multi-agent debate architecture — parallel calls across Gemini, Llama, and Mistral
  • Meta-judge consensus layer with a transparent verdict on why an answer won
  • Built solo, end to end: product strategy, UI, and architecture

BYOC — SDLC Agents

What if the agency was software?

Build Your Own Company turns the software delivery lifecycle into a product. Configure what your product needs brick by brick — auth, payments, dashboards — watch the cost update in real time, then follow the build through a metro-map of SDLC phases. Underneath, AI agents carry the work through those phases autonomously.

  • AI agents mapped to SDLC phases — plan, design, build, test, ship
  • Interactive 3D-style configurator and a metro-map pipeline tracker
  • Honesty about cost as the core product idea — no black-box quotes

AI Tools for Builders

Not a video library. A working session.

Once or twice a week I block an hour to build with someone — designer, developer, or founder — on their project, using the AI workflow I use daily. It isn’t a course you watch; it’s an hour where we ship something together. Afterwards you get a short written note: what we figured out, what to do next, and links to everything I referenced.

  • You bring a real project; we move it forward together for an hour
  • My actual workflow — Figma, AI tools, and code where it matters
  • Full refund if it didn’t help. The pitch is the work, not the price.

004 Approach

Design and code are one job.

Most teams split the work: a designer hands a mockup to an engineer, and the gap between them is where intent leaks out — the spacing drifts, the empty state never gets built, the animation that made the idea legible gets dropped for time. I close that gap by doing both ends myself.

BestAnswers.AI is the clearest example. The core idea — four AI personas arguing, then a judge merging the strongest reasoning — only works if you can see the disagreement. I couldn't spec that in a static frame, so I designed it in code: built the debate view, watched four real model responses land, found that simultaneous streaming read as chaos, and redesigned the sequencing right there in the same file. Design decision and implementation were the same act. The verdict graph in this page's hero is that same idea, miniaturised.

That loop — design a little, build a little, let the running thing correct the next decision — is how everything here gets made.
