Product Designer/Fintech, SaaS & AI/Bangalore, —

Meet Harini. She makes complicated things feel obvious.

She designs fintech, SaaS and AI products with an eye for structure, and a slightly nosy curiosity about why people tap where they tap.

Selected work · Techurate

Three banking products from her time at Techurate. Three different kinds of hard.

Getting people through the door. Helping them decide what to do with their money. Then letting them simply ask. Three projects from her time leading design at Techurate, a B2B platform banks build on. Client names and data stay confidential.

Onboarding · Fintech · Design thinking

Making the first few minutes of banking feel less like paperwork.

Every verification step, redesigned so new customers know why it's there, trust what happens to their details, and reach a working account faster.

What does someone need to know, do and trust before they become an active customer?

Savvr · Safe to Spend · Product thinking

Helping people understand what they can spend, not just what they have.

A balance tells you what's there. It doesn't tell you what's already spoken for. This turns bills, habits and goals into one honest answer.

Balance → Information → Guidance → Action

BankGPT · AI banking · Conversational UX

What happens when the banking interface becomes a conversation?

Not "we added a chatbot." A careful look at when asking beats tapping, and what happens when the AI gets it wrong: corrections, confirmations, guardrails, and knowing when to hand back to the screen.

Conversation → Understanding → Result → Action

About

Before screens, there were spaces.

Harini on a footbridge in the evening
HariniBangalore, India

She started out designing spaces that people physically move through. Today she designs products that people move through with their thumbs.

The thinking carried over. Architecture taught her to plan for how people actually move, not how the plan assumes they will: where they pause, where they hesitate, and where they need a clear sign. She brings that same attention to every flow she designs.

Over three years she has led design across fintech, SaaS and AI products, from onboarding and digital banking to conversational experiences, growing from UI/UX Designer to Lead Designer along the way.

A floor plan is a user flow with walls.

Side quests

And then she gets curious about things that have nothing to do with banking.

An iron, a night out and a cleaning booking. Different problems, same question: what's actually getting in the way?

Recognition

Noticed along the way.

Off the clock

Four things that quietly shape how she designs.

Coffee, mountains, long drives and doors. Go on, poke them.

PerspectiveMountains

Problems look smaller from up there.

So do spreadsheets. Mountains are where she zooms out before zooming back in.

Move around to look closer
Thinking speedLong drives km 0

The good ideas show up around km 80.

She writes them down at the next stop. Never at the wheel.

Second natureNoticing

She sees the grid behind everything.

Spacing, alignment, why a button sits exactly where it does. Once you start noticing, you can't switch it off.

Journal

A journal for things she can't stop noticing.

Longer thoughts on products, copy and the small decisions that shape behaviour. Published on Medium.

    The iron that didn't need a handle

    How user interviews moved the problem from the ironing board to the iron itself, and shaped the Ergo Glider.

    Indecision is the real product

    Food apps aren't really helping you find food. They're helping you decide, and that's where the business is.
