Hi!
I am Tom, a product designer and UI/UX expert from Vienna. I have had the privilege of working across various facets of product development, including product design, product management, conceptualization and UI/UX design. My professional journey has taken me to diverse organizations, spanning digital agencies, corporations, and innovative start-ups from New York, San Francisco, Berlin, Vienna and Tel Aviv.
Skills
I come fully equipped to take on any role within a product or UI/UX team. I’m well-versed in various methodologies, including agile approaches like SCRUM, Kanban, XP, and RAD, as well as more traditional waterfall methods. I’m highly proficient in Figma, where I can create animated prototypes that provide all stakeholders with a vivid understanding of the product’s vision and direction. Additionally, I frequently utilize Jira and Miro to develop and present roadmaps, user stories, and retrospectives.
