Design System to AI Prototyping

A global travel enterprise was unifying multiple internal platforms under one brand, with no shared foundation to build on.

I joined the design team focusing on Figma and Storybook, treating the Design System as infrastructure, not just a style guide. The bigger shift was speed. With Git, Bitbucket and Claude Code wired into the workflow, designers stopped handing over static mockups and started shipping working prototypes themselves.

PowerFit - Gym Log Tracker

Launching soon

I’ve tried fitness apps before—but gave up before even starting my first workout. The onboarding felt longer than an actual gym session. I just wanted something simple, yet flexible enough to customize my training, track progress, and see real results.

PowerFit makes fitness effective—without constantly pushing subscriptions or meal plans. It’s built to support your journey, not sell to you at every turn.

Process and Skills

Here's How I Do It!

Coming up with the ideal solutions is less than a linear path, so I find myself spending a lot of time between the business, users and engineers.

As work philosophy, I do embrace Design Thinking with an ability to morph and adapt to different Agile teams, following best industry practice.

Testimonials

What My Peers and Managers Say

Vlad has been my very first hire at Avira - in an emerging endeavour to change the online business model of the company - which at that date started with the website and online operations.

I was impressed by Vlad's intelligence and unparalleled skill set on front end development, to only later find out that he has been extremely skilled in design too.

From there on it took us no less than 5 years to grow and build sophisticated workflows to even core business products that proved to have an undeniable impact on the company's bottom line while consistently taking the team to new frontiers.

Today, almost 10 years since then, Vlad is my friend and nothing is going to change that.

Cristi Gheorghe

Product Owner @Adobe / Former Manager @Avira

Working with Vlad was a great experience. I have the opportunity to work with him on a couple of projects. Even those we got tasks out of our everyday basis, a comfortable zone, Vlad was all the time able to come with really inspiring and outstanding solutions. I enjoyed the discussion during our RTL project for EMEA countries, doing the first internal usability testing, working on the design language (a CSS framework also covering the design principles) or getting advice from the technical perspective of our design proposals.

Vlad can be rightfully considered as a full-stack designer, for someone the legendary unicorn. He has in-depth knowledge in technical, design and even presentation areas. Vlad is a great team player who is always open for discussion and not afraid to ask profound questions to understand the core problem and bring the best solution.

Zdenek Zenger

Senior Manager @Pricefx

Highly Recommended:
I have worked closely with Vlad for over 4 years, and during that time, he has proved himself one of the most versatile designers I have had the pleasure to work with.

From UX and web design, to motion graphics and animations, Vlad displays both an impressive breadth and depth of design mastery. His positive can-do approach, good humor and creativity have made him a pleasure to work with. But above all else, I believe that Vlad’s most distinctive and unique feature is his unrelenting drive for personal development and learning, which has made him a most valuable and esteemed asset to his team and company.

He will be much missed, and I warmly recommend him to prospective employers for any senior creative position.

Leor Nadison

Senior Marketing Manager / Former Copywriter

I have been working together with Vlad for almost 5 years, in various roles for both of us.

When I first met him, he was a passionate Front end developer building projects serving millions of users across the world. At the same time, I had the chance to work together with him at a presentation about CSS and Grid systems for an internal workshop - which was very well received.

Through the years, his eagerness to learn and to evolve paved the way to a new role, as UX/UI Designer. Taking advantage of his existing skill set, he manages to craft clean, beautiful designs which accommodate the existing style guidelines of the company.

He is a real professional no matter the position, executing his tasks in a timely matter while maintaining the high-quality of the work.

Apart from all, he is a great and fun-to-work-with colleague, things that make Vlad a valuable asset for any company.

Adrian Breaban

Product Owner @Bitdefender / Former Frontend Lead

Vlad is by far one of the best peers I have worked with. He shares great passion for doing things extremely well.

He grinds through work to get everything done on time and with great level of quality. He does not fear taking on new technologies and adapts really fast when learning something new.

It is really difficult nowadays finding someone on the crossing between design and development, and Vlad is one of those unicorns. I have the fortune of working with him on the same projects, and we team up incredibly well.

David Linke

Senior UX/UI Designer & Mentor

It is a pleasure working with Vlad. He is a great frontend designer who excels at creating a user interface and brings to the table an incredible attitude with a large attention to schedule with an amazing expertise of HTML / CSS development.

We worked together on a big project for demanding client and Vlad was a core of our team, always positive, confident and highly motivated.

Andrew Zacek

Design Manager @Microsoft

Vlad was my right-hand person on a critical project: building a new Design System and an AI Prototyping system for a global travel enterprise’s internal tools. It was a high-stakes effort that went from 0 to 1 in just five months, and throughout it, Vlad was always there for his colleagues, and always in my corner when I needed support thinking through strategic decisions with leadership.

He brings strong skills in UI/UX, Design Systems, and AI (especially Claude), and on top of that, he’s just a genuinely great person to work with. I’d work with Vlad again without hesitation, and any company would be lucky to have him on their team.

The Gear Behind the Magic

Design is more than just learning and mastering a set of tools, but those definitely come in handy when you need to create, collaborate, and present your work.
