Hey,
I'm Akhil, a product designer who enjoys making complex things feel simple.
I design products that balance complexity with care, turning intricate systems, data and workflows into experiences people can understand and use with confidence.
Previously at Juspay, I worked on 0→1 enterprise payment products that serve Indian and Western merchants.
Always happy to chat about design, creative experiments, a good road trip and everything in between. Say hello on Gmail or get in touch on LinkedIn, X or Instagram.

A little more about me.
I'm Akhil, a self-taught product designer with a background in Computer Science. An introvert and, apparently, a serious thinker.
I'm based in Hyderabad, though I spent a few years living in Bengaluru.
I've always been curious about how things work, why they're the way they are, and what could make them better. I enjoy questioning the obvious, exploring different possibilities, and experimenting with ideas just to see where they lead. Design eventually became a natural extension of that mindset. It gave me a way to turn those questions and ideas into something tangible. What started as an exploration gradually grew into something I genuinely enjoy doing.
Over the years, I've worked across fintech and HRMS, designing B2B and enterprise product experiences.
