Projects that I had key impacts on

Responsibilities

  • Engaged in cross-team discussions with Solution Designers, UX Designers, Project Managers, and Engineers in different countries (India, US, UK) and provided valuable suggestions for refining designs (Technical & Callouts)
  • Worked on building components for Terra-based internal design system. The components are pulled into 'Kaiju', a drag-and-drop web editor for building components and templates that are composed of predefined react components. The design system is based on 'Atomic Design' Principles.
  • Developed UI components and designed information architecture for multi-patient drafting scenarios resulting in the one-time charting of common data.

Learnings

Working with teams in different locations (India, US, and UK counterparts) was one of my best learnings for diverse collaborations. I worked closely with team members of different roles such as Solution Designers, UX teams, and Product Managers in every iteration, through which I learned how vast and deep we could think of the same solution or artifact. In sum, my technical knowledge and thought process reached a professional level while working on these Projects.
