ELIMINATE THE REWORK TAX
TECHNICAL PRODUCT DESIGNER & AI PRODUCT LEAD
I bridge the gap between product ambiguity and engineering execution. I deliver logic-locked UI/UX specs that stop your senior devs from playing "Requirement Detective," and install the structural guardrails that keep AI agents from breaking production.
Whether stepping in as a fractional embedded partner, executing a high-stakes surgical sprint, or integrating as a full-time design lead, I ensure your team ships logic, not guesswork.
✺ THE DUAL THREAT
VELOCITY WITHOUT VALIDITY IS JUST AUTOMATED CHAOS.
You have a talented team and a clear roadmap, yet engineering velocity stalls at the handoff. Today’s product pipelines break under two specific threats:
1. The Manual Triage Bottleneck (The Human Tax)
Standard UI designs leave system logic unresolved. Senior engineers stop building and start decoding—burning 30% of their sprint playing "Requirement Detective" and guessing the Information Architecture.
2. The "Functional Lie" (The AI Threat)
AI coding agents solve speed, but not truth. If your design specs are "unlocked," the AI bridges the ambiguity with plausible hallucinations, shipping broken logic faster than your lead dev can peer-review it.
Everything is designed—including your logic gaps. You cannot decorate your way out of a systemic problem; you must design the structural constraints.
✺ THE METHODOLOGY
LOGIC BEFORE PIXELS. VALIDITY BEFORE VELOCITY.
Most teams try to fix engineering speed by forcing designers to work faster. I reverse the flow. By bringing Systems Architecture rigor directly into your UI/UX deliverables, I map the system states so the front-end never makes a promise the back-end cannot immediately validate.
I do not eliminate product iteration; I eliminate Logic-Triage. I act as the technical firewall between your ambiguous product requirements and your database.
What I deliver:
Hardened Edge-Cases:
No more "Happy Path" assumptions. Every invalid state mapped.
State Integrity (The Logic Lock):
Every transition, error boundary, and API constraint resolved.
Zero-Triage Handoffs:
Human devs use inherent doubt to ask questions; AI agents use inherent confidence to hallucinate. I lock the logic so your builder executes a definitive spec, rather than guessing your business intent.
✺ HOW I ENGAGE
Stop the bleed. Choose your intervention based on your immediate sprint constraints, or reach out regarding full-time leadership integration.
ENGAGEMENT PROTOCOLS.
The Logic-Readiness Audit
A 72-hour clinical stress test of your product’s Information Architecture. We identify the “unlocked” requirements triggering the rework tax before they hit your production sprint.
$1,200.00 (Fixed Fee)
The AI-Readiness Sprint
A 5-day surgical strike to harden the logic of one high-risk AI feature. I install the machine-readable Logic Locks that keep automated builds from guessing your business intent.
$4,000.00 (Fixed Fee)
Embedded Product Designer
A heavy-hitting, technical design partner dropped into your backlog to ensure every ticket is build-ready. I take messy product requirements and translate them into logic-locked high-fidelity prototypes.
$2,500.00 / Week (Fractional Retainer)
✺ THE LEADERSHIP INTEGRATION
LOOKING FOR A FULL-TIME DESIGN LEAD?
If your organization requires permanent, in-house architectural rigor, I am open to discussing full-time Staff Product Designer or Lead UX roles for the right strategic fit.
