Greetings! I'm Kushal, I work as a product designer. As a designer, I invest in upcoming technologies, real prototyping tools and cinema to communicate a good story.
I had a chance to contribute in startups ranging from ecommerce - saas - fintech.
Most recently I worked at Scapia. Having worked exclusively in startups, I value their efficiency, speed of communication and decision-making, and emphasis on quality and craft.
For me design is excitement. Creating something today, people will use tomorrow is exciting. I believe in iterative process rather than perfectionism.

Projects
Experience
Scapia 2024
I'm part of the travel design team. I look after Flights, Buses, international travel growth and horizontal system experiences.
Jar 2023
I worked on Gold saving accounts retention and design initiatives. We solve the problems of educating about saving in gold, building trust in the platform, and providing assistance to the user for taking a better financial decision.
Simpl 2022
I work on the pay later consumer products at Simpl. We solve the problem of how to explain pay later as a convenience product rather then a credit instrument. Another core problem we look at is how to give better shopping limits to our users early in there lifecycle at Simpl.
Bikayi 2021
We started the New Initiatives team at Bikayi. It was responsible for building the products for the increasing use cases of our existing merchants while helped in increasing the TG. Post switch to Bik.ai we worked on establishing the first design system at Bik.
RedcarpetUp 2020
As a design intern, I conducted research on user expectations of a ₹60,000 credit limit. We educated users during credit card onboarding about the difference between sanctioned and credit limits, which reduced customer support tickets. We also introduced a new credit-on-FD card.
On curiosity
Quentin Tarantino
When people ask me if I went to film school I tell them, "No I went to films".
from "research as leisure activity" by CELINE NGUYEN
"Wildenhaus's description has stayed with me because it reflects how the best software products aren't just assemblages of functionality, exposed by particular formal elements (links, buttons, icons, menus). Rather, they organize and shape how you think, and they create or sustain a particular lifestyle."
