About Me
NAYOUNG


Services
As a Product Designer with 4+ years in hardware-software integration and AI-powered interfaces, I create experiences that seamlessly connect physical products with digital ecosystems.
With a background in Industrial Design, I design for both hardware and software, ensuring every decision balances user experience with measurable business impact.
01
Strategy
Through direct collaboration with stakeholders, I define product UX strategies from day one, not just at the end of the process. I shape the strategic direction of digital experiences, from leading design systems at GE Appliances (50% faster development) to defining AI-driven security frameworks at a $75M Series A startup. My focus isn't just execution - it's strategizing how design drives measurable business outcomes.

02
Design
I specialize in IoT device experiences and AI-powered interfaces, designing for both consumer and enterprise contexts. At GE Appliances, I led voice interaction design for touchless kitchen experiences that reduced error rates by 40%. At Exaforce, I designed AI-assisted security dashboards and streamlined onboarding flows that reduced configuration time by 35%. Whether it's connected devices or data-heavy platforms, I design solutions that work seamlessly for end users while driving business results.

Development
I bridge design and implementation by being a proactive collaborator who makes developers' lives easier. By building scalable design systems and component libraries across 400+ screens, I ensure seamless handoff and accelerate development by up to 50%. I work closely with engineers to deliver high-fidelity prototypes that translate directly into production code, eliminating ambiguity and reducing rework.
