About

I make complex products feel obvious. Currently designing developer tools used by banks. Previously simplified warehouse operations, observability platforms, and EdTech products.

Hi, I'm Devesh. I Design B2B Products For Expert Users.

I'm a senior product designer in Bengaluru. Since 2021 I've designed developer tools for banks, scanners for warehouse floors and alerting for engineering teams. I like problems that are dense and a little unglamorous.

I start with the people who use the product, design the system underneath it, and stay with it until it ships and the numbers move. I also make the content that explains the work, on camera and in motion.

What I Bring To A Team

  • I own the outcome

    At Docuwiz I took a product from concept to MVP to enterprise customers, with the strategy and roadmap in my hands.

  • I start with real users

    Warehouse operators in Saudi Arabia, user calls with students and mentors, live tests with developers.

  • I build systems, not screens

    A design system at every company, from turning a UI library into one at Quantive to the block editor in Docuwiz.

  • I think in business terms

    B2B SaaS is home. I tie design decisions to signups, adoption and positioning, not just to how a screen looks.

  • I design with AI

    I built Spotkit, an open-source Claude Code skill, and led AI-driven design and illustration systems at APIwiz.

  • I tell the story

    I make the content that explains the work: product videos in Jitter, webinars on camera, and talks to designers.

    Owned a feature end to end, from user calls to shipped design: 12% more student-mentor sessions a week, 26% more targets set.
