Liliia Orlenko
Senior / Lead Product Designer & Design Engineer
With a graphic design and interactive media background, I take startups and scale-ups end to end, designing complex products people can trust: modular, robust, and built on product thinking, UX craft and hands-on AI tooling.

Systems over screens
A system's real job is to help teams work together. It gives marketing, business, and engineering a shared way to build with design instead of each team going its own way.
Research before production
The most useful things I learn come from being in the room while someone does their job, not from asking them to describe it afterward.
Accountable for outcomes
I write down what worked and what didn't. Recording the failures matters as much as the wins, because that's how a team learns and stops repeating the same mistakes.
AI-augmented, not AI-replaced
Claude Code, Cursor, and Figma Make are part of my daily work. They shift the balance between thinking and production, without replacing the thinking.
