I'm Vaarun Ramesh!
I’m a UI/UX designer who enjoys turning ideas into calm, usable products.
When I’m not designing, you’ll probably find me at the gym, bouldering, or building small
side projects just for fun. I like working at the intersection of experimental design,
logic, and real human behaviour — especially products that respect users instead of
overwhelming them.
I care about details, clarity, and shipping things that actually work in the real world.

Frequently Asked Questions
I bridge the gap between creative design and technical execution. Because I have experience in both UI/UX Design (Figma) and Mobile Development (Android/Kotlin), I don't just design "pretty screens"—I create functional, scalable product solutions that are ready for engineering. I bring a research-backed approach to every problem, ensuring design decisions are driven by user data rather than assumptions, which saves time and reduces development friction.
I am available to join immediately. I have completed my current commitments and am ready to integrate into your team and start contributing from Day 1.
Absolutely. I am fully mobile and enthusiastic about relocating anywhere. I view relocation as an exciting opportunity to bring my diverse perspective to international teams and immerse myself in new professional environments.
I currently hold a Job Seeker Visa for Germany, which provides me with full legal eligibility to interview and sign an employment contract immediately. This allows for a smooth and fast hiring process without the need for immediate sponsorship support to get started.
My process blends Design Thinking with Technical Feasibility:
Discover & Define: I start by understanding the user problem through data and research, ensuring we are solving the right problem, not just the obvious one.
Iterative Prototyping: I move quickly from low-fidelity wireframes to high-fidelity prototypes.
Technical Reality Check: Unlike many designers, I constantly evaluate the technical feasibility of my designs (e.g., assessing Android/Material guidelines) to ensure a smooth handoff to developers.
Validation: I test designs early to gather feedback, iterating based on real user insights to ensure the final product delivers measurable business value.
