I use these to build prototypes, understand what a design takes to implement and work through details with developers.
ComfortableI'm Jamiu, a product designer living in Brighton. I care about that moment when someone opens a product and knows what to do without needing to ask.
I've spent the past few years working on banking, payments, marketplaces and AI products. The projects look different, but the questions I ask are usually the same: who is this for, and what is getting in their way?
I enjoy getting involved early, sketching rough ideas and talking them through with developers. A neat Figma file is only part of the job.
At Horal I designed for buyers and sellers. At Radius I worked on payments for students and their families. At ITSS I helped design Vista banking across four markets, and at Bizinc I grew into a design leadership role.
I'm also studying for an MSc in User Experience Design at the University of Brighton. It's a chance to keep questioning my assumptions and get better at the decisions behind the screens.
I'm curious, I ask questions and I care about the small things. I also know when to stop polishing and work with the team to get something useful out into the world.


Selected projects
Web and mobile work across fintech, SaaS, marketplaces, healthcare and AI.
Banking markets
Digital banking design for four West African subsidiaries at Vista.
AI evaluations
Comparative model and visual-quality evaluation; separate from usability research.
On Radius, that meant thinking about someone trying to pay a student’s fees from another country. On Vista, it meant making sure a finance manager could tell which company they were acting for. Different products, but the same feeling: an important decision should never have to be a guessing game.
I’m now studying UX Design at the University of Brighton, and I still enjoy getting into the technical side of how things are built. Outside the screen, football is a good reminder that teamwork and practice matter there too.
These are the things I try to come back to, especially when a project gets busy.
Don't make someone guess what to do next.
Ask a better question before rushing into a solution.
Be clear about what I did and what the evidence really says.
Keep everyone in the loop, especially when things change.
Product design and collaboration across live platforms, financial services and AI.


DESIGN → BUILD
I design in Figma, build front-end prototypes and work with AI tools when they help the product. Understanding the build helps me discuss decisions with developers.
