Drove end‑to‑end discovery for six SaaS modules - conducted stakeholder interviews, remote diary studies and competitive teardowns to define an MVP‑focused backlog.
Introduced a design‑token starter kit in Figma, which the front‑end team adopted in Storybook, cutting CSS overrides by ~40 %.

Embedded design tokens (colour, spacing, typography) straight from Figma, ensuring consistency and shaving days off front‑end theming whenever the style guide evolved.
Facilitated dev‑design pairing sessions and wrote living documentation, reducing onboarding time for new engineers and strengthening the hand‑off loop between product, design and engineering.
