ABOUT · UX DESIGNER AND CONSULTANT · DUBAI

I bridge design and technology, so good ideas actually work.

I'm Chandrajith, a UX designer and consultant with 16 years of turning research into products people use, and staying with them until they go live. I work across research, interaction design, design systems and AI product UX.

Two hats. One job.

The through-line: as a UX designer I understand both the person using the product and the system delivering it, and I make them meet.

UX designer

I work end to end: research and discovery, interaction design and user flows, visual and UI design, and prototyping. I don’t hand off at the wireframe. I care about the whole arc, from a user need to a polished interface.

Frontline deployment engineer

I take the product the last mile: client-facing rollout, integration into real environments, and training and handoff so teams can run it themselves. I’m there when it goes live, not just when it’s designed.

Today I lead design-to-code work across several enterprise products, with AI woven into every stage of how I research, design and build.

Today

Enterprise and AI products

Design systems, data platforms, learning products and AI features, taken from research all the way to rollout.

SERVICES

Where I help

01 UX audits

A clear, prioritised view of what is costing you users, from first click to task completion, with fixes your team can ship.

02 Product and interaction design

Flows, wireframes, prototypes and polished UI for web and mobile products, including bilingual and right-to-left interfaces.

03 Design systems

Tokens, components and governance that keep large teams consistent, built to translate straight into code.

04 AI product UX

Interfaces for AI features and agents that people trust: clear levels of autonomy, human review where it matters, and honest feedback states.

PROCESS

How I work

01

Users first

Every project starts with the people using it. Everything else flows from what we learn there.

02

Show, don’t tell

I would rather put a prototype on the table than a slide deck. Decisions get easier when people can click.

03

Design the whole system

Design, engineering, environment and people all connect. I design for the whole, not the fragment.

04

Stay for go-live

I follow the work into rollout, integration and training, so it actually gets used.

Quality over speed. I won’t ship broken work to hit a date, and I do what I said I’d do, fully.

BEYOND THE WORK

I learn by building and shipping real things, backed by deep reading and honest feedback. I am warm in a room and recharge in quiet focus. In a crisis, the people I work with know me as the calm one.

FAQ

Working with me

Short answers to what clients usually ask first.

Where are you based, and do you work remotely?

I am based in Dubai and work with teams on site when it helps and remotely the rest of the time.

What kind of projects do you take on?

UX audits, product and interaction design, design system setup, AI product UX, and longer design partnerships for teams without a senior designer.

Can you design bilingual and right-to-left interfaces?

Yes. Mirrored layouts, typography, numerals and bidirectional forms are part of the work from day one, not a translation pass at the end.

Do you work with developers?

Closely. I write front-end code myself, so designs arrive as tokens, components and specs your developers can build from directly.

How do we start?

Book a 20-minute call. We talk about your product and your users, and I come back with a clear proposal of scope, timeline and cost.

Have a product that needs to work for real users?

I take on a small number of consulting projects at a time, from a focused UX audit to a full design system. Tell me what you are building.
