About me

Hi, I'm Michał a principal designer and design system lead with strong focus on ux, data and AI.

Transforming complex problems into simple, intuitive, and user-centered experiences.

I'm Principal Product Designer with 5+ years designing complex workflows for enterprise B2B SaaS products. I own end-to-end product design - from early concepts through high-fidelity prototypes to shipped UI - partnering closely with Product, Engineering, and Design. I integrate AI tools (Claude, Figma MCP) into my daily design workflow and bring strong design-to-engineering collaboration experience with high ownership and autonomy.

My professional journey began with art and drawing, then evolved into architecture and urban planning, and eventually led me to become a UX/UI designer, combining those foundations with new skills I continue to develop in different environments. Outside of work, sport has played a significant role for over a dozen years. This includes runnin from a few kilometers to ultra distances, triathlon, or simply yoga. I believe there is great value in developing across different areas, and what has given me a lot recently is meeting people through my own podcast when I interviewed psychologists, through designers, researchers, businesspeople, developers, corporate executives.
