I'm a Seattle-based product designer who builds. I have 14 years of experience in product design and development.
I obsess over visual craft, build AI-native design systems, and write code when mockups aren't enough.
Currently at Remitly, leading design systems for design and engineering teams. Outside of work, I build Figma plugins used by 30,000+ creators and AI-powered tools like Scraib, a writing assistant.
This website is also available on the command line:
ssh hi@alikimovi.ch I lead design systems at Remitly, where 5 million people trust the app to send money to their families.
I designed and coded a WCAG-compliant component library in Figma and React Native with accessibility built in as the default, fully documented in Storybook and with JSDocs, for engineers and models. Also I prototype in code, create Figma plugins and other tools that automate design processes, and lead educational initiatives to scale design quality across the org.
I led Swiftly's multi-platform design system, designing and documenting components alongside engineers. I created Figma plugins to automate theme creation, management, and token generation.
Here's a story about one of
these tools, a color palette generator↗︎ that greatly benefited our design, engineering, and marketing teams
by saving a considerable number of hours.
In addition to it, I worked closely with researchers and product managers to enhance user experience and develop new features for our products.
It was an exciting time of rapid growth for Veeam. I collaborated closely with marketing and engineering teams to develop a new corporate website and design system for Veeam.
At Cointelegraph, I designed versions for China, South Korea, and Turkey. Being able to work across multiple time zones and learn about the specifics of multilingual interfaces for different cultures was fascinating. A few months later, Cointelegraph became the most visited crypto media in the world. In addition, I designed and launched a new product, Cointelegraph Magazine↗︎
I helped build a design team from scratch and worked on various
projects, including launching a loyalty program app for x5
Retail Group ( case study) and redesigning CRM for a pharmaceutical company.
When I joined AGIMA, they had just started developing mobile
apps. I led a design team that helped AGIMA become the
second-best mobile app development agency in Russia. One notable
project was a mobile app for the second-largest internet
provider in Russia, Dom.ru ( case study).
In 2014, I founded a design studio with a small team of
designers and engineers. Our focus was mainly on creating mobile
apps. Here is one of my favorite projects made by our team for
Visa, Fitbox Virtual Racing ( case study).
My professional career started with a website I built for my sister. To learn more, I began helping others with design and websites. Eventually, I had too many clients to handle, so I started my own studio.
