<p>SEEKING WORK - Remote - A Designer Who Can Code<p>I love solving complex problems and have 14 years of experience in Fin-Tech, Journalism, TV and Media, Health, Science, and more.<p>I've taken countless projects from 0 to 1 working with clients like JPMorgan Chase, Santander Bank, Rob Walling, Trello, Peter Diamandis, Syncthing, SimplyCredit and others. I'm experienced in Vue.js, Django, Phoenix framework, Quasar, just to name a few. I pick up new tech easily and like working on complex products.<p>I can help you with:<p><pre><code>  - Product Design: I help identify and solve the real problems your users face. Whether you're struggling with low engagement, confusing user flows, or a product that doesn't quite meet market needs, I dig deep into user pain points to design solutions that actually work. From ground-up product strategy to fixing specific friction points that are hurting your metrics.

  - Front-end Development: I can turn the design into a pixel perfect product. Being able to design and develop allows me to move at speeds otherwise impossible by cutting a lot of the steps otherwise needed.</code></pre>
I take my work very seriously and put a lot of work into excellent communication, proper planning, and last but not least, properly understanding your product so that we can produce great results.

<p>SEEKING WORK - Remote - A designer who can code!
I have 14 years of experience in Fin-Tech, Journalism, TV and Media, Health, Science, and more.

Case studies are on my website: <a href="https://gilli.is" rel="nofollow">https://gilli.is</a>.<p>I can provide the following for you:<p>- Product Design — Whether you need a design from scratch, a redesign, or you're having issues with a small part of your product, I can design it.<p>- Front-end Development — I can build the design into a pixel perfect product. This is rare among us designers and has proven to be extremely powerful for the result since there is less wasted effort. I've worked with a wide range of frontend and backend technologies and can hit the ground running on new projects. I pick up new tech quickly, which makes it easy for me to adapt to different environments.<p>- Analysis — Your users, know everything that's wrong with your product but have difficulty communicating it. Often it comes out in anger and frustration. That's where my usability analysis comes in. I'll review your app from an outsider and expert point of view, and give you actionable feedback.<p>- Free advice — You might not be sure if I am the right fit, and I very well might not be. I can help you figure out the best direction to go for free.<p>I take my work very seriously and put a lot of work into excellent communication, proper planning, and, last but not least, properly understanding your product so that we can produce great results.<p>Portfolio at: <a href="https://gilli.is" rel="nofollow">https://gilli.is</a><p>Contact me at gilli@hn.gilli.is</p>

<p>SEEKING WORK - Remote - A designer who can code!<p>I have 10 years of experience in Fin-Tech and over 14 years combined in Journalism, TV and Media, Health, Science, and more. I've worked for clients like JPMorgan Chase, Santander Bank, Rob Walling, Trello, Peter Diamandis, Syncthing, SimplyCredit and others.<p>I'm experienced in Vue.js, Django, Phoenix framework, Quasar to name a few. Pick up new tech easily and like working on complex products. Old case studies are on my website: <a href="https://gilli.is" rel="nofollow">https://gilli.is</a>. However, most work from recent years has been buried behind NDAs. I can provide the following for you:<p>- Design — Whether you need a design from scratch, a redesign, or you're having issues with a small part of your product, I can design it.<p>- Front-end Development — I can build the design into a pixel perfect product. This is rare among us designers and has proven to be extremely powerful for the result since there is less wasted effort.<p>- Analysis — Your users, know everything that's wrong with your product but have difficulty communicating it. Often it comes out in anger and frustration. That's where my usability analysis comes in.
