Vinicius Ramos

Senior Product Designer

Based in Florianópolis - SC, Brazil

I'm a design graduate who has been working with digital products for the past 14 years. I have extensive experience in UX, wireframing, prototyping, and creating high-fidelity mockups for both web and mobile.

I usually get involved in all product development stages: from the initial strategic concepts to the final implementation. I have been a design lead on project teams and worked equally well as part of a team or individual contributor.

My experience as an entrepreneur and content creator allowed me to lead and communicate well with my co-workers. I had the chance to show that mainly during the last months when I worked for market leaders like Intermex, HP, Toyota's Raymond Corp, Gilbarco Veeder-Root, and Datafaction (City National Bank's Fintech SaaS company).

In summary, I trust my technical knowledge and proven experience as a designer and leader to provide solutions for any company.
