Making complex
things feel simple
I’m Saran. A product designer with an engineer’s mindset and a curiosity that rarely switches off.
01 / HOW I LIKE TO WORK
- 01 / Discover
Understand the messy bits.
Start with people, context, and constraints. Find the real problem before deciding what to make. - 02 / Make
Make something useful.
Turn promising ideas into clear flows and working prototypes that people can try. - 03 / Refine
Refine it.
Test the details, learn what gets in the way, and make each interaction easier to use. - 04 / Deliver
Make it real.
Work with engineering to ship a considered solution, then keep improving it.

GitHubA designer.
An engineer.
Always curious.
From Trivandrum to Toronto, with a few interesting turns along the way.
I started in software engineering, then moved closer to the people using the things we build. I bring 15+ years of experience across Product Design and Software Engineering to questions of flow, structure, usability, and interaction.
Today, I work in Product Design at BeyondTrust, focusing on complex enterprise cybersecurity software, primarily Endpoint Privilege Management. I contribute to the design system and work closely with UX Research, Product Management, and Engineering to make complex workflows easier to understand and use.
Earlier, I established a UX practice at Attinad and led designers and front-end engineers. That experience, together with my engineering background, keeps me close to both the big picture and the details of making it work.
Beyond the screen: photography, music, and a lasting connection to Trivandrum, Kerala. The interests change the pace; the curiosity stays.
