HARI KUMARAN BABU
I am someone who believes in being versatile. Maybe that's an excuse to satisfy my curiosity but I am sure if you take a look at my body of work, they are all tangential to one another. Different experiences, differing experiments, one resolve which is to live our life to the fullest.
"Never stop learning, never stop exploring for we all live only one life." has always been my motto.
What intrigues me the most is to venture into unknown / newer areas of technology that I stumble upon and try solving them. The more challenging the problems, the more interested I become. Today we live in a world where technology is at the forefront and I look forward to lead people to how user experience can solve even the most complex of problems and make life simpler.
Work Experience
An experienced interaction / product designer with expertise in B2B enterprise domains across various fields namely information technology ( ITAM, ITOps, SaaS, Cloud ) , construction, transportation, etc. with a demonstrated history of building and scaling up 20+ digital product applications from ideation to execution across various platforms namely - Web / Mobile / Tablet / MR /
Individual contributions and cross discipline collaborations with various stakeholders - product managers, technical leads, developers and designers. Experience working with multiple projects of diverse domains with different stakeholders.
Versatility is the key for me. I started out as a graphic designer ( logos, web sliders, creating marketing collaterals ), and then slowly moved towards UI/UX design and improving my skills gradually, covering all the bases. Took a step into AR / XR world and gained practical knowledge on how to design for them. Meanwhile, ventured into video editing and motion graphics as a hobby and actively contributed to video design.
I am someone who believes in spending quality time in researching about the user, the product requirement and their business environment and once soaked in, I believe in taking swift action, efficient communication and collaborating as a team as keys for effective execution starting from ideation to delivery, without compromising on quality.
