Hi, I’m Santosh Nagarajan a UX designer based in Vancouver with a passion for simplifying complex systems through thoughtful design. I hold a Master’s in Design from the National Institute of Design, India’s premier design school, and have over 8 years of experience working across industries like telecom, fintech, wearables, and consumer tech. After completing my studies, I worked with startups, agencies, and large enterprises like Verizon, Publicis Sapient, Titan and Tata Elxsi. These roles gave me hands-on experience in UX research, interface design, and design systems often working on products used by millions.
When I’m not designing, you’ll likely find me exploring Vancouver’s art galleries, hiking its scenic trails, or creating digital art. My artistic roots continue to fuel my creativity and shape how I approach design every day.

About me
Hi, I’m Santosh Nagarajan, a Vancouver-based designer currently working as a Senior UX/UI designer focused on shaping complex digital products into clear, intuitive experiences.
With 10+ years of experience across telecom, fintech, healthcare, wearables, and consumer technology, I’ve worked across startups, agencies, and enterprise teams including Verizon, Publicis Sapient, Titan, and Tata Elxsi. My work sits at the intersection of product thinking, systems design, and execution, leading initiatives from early discovery through interaction design, interface systems, and delivery.
I hold a Master’s in Design from the National Institute of Design (NID), India, and bring a hands-on approach to leadership: aligning teams, simplifying complexity, and creating experiences that balance user needs, business goals, and technical realities at scale.
I’m especially drawn to projects where thoughtful design can improve clarity, trust, and usability across high-impact workflows, whether in enterprise platforms, consumer products, or fast-moving digital experiences.
Outside of work, I draw inspiration from Vancouver’s art galleries, the outdoors, and the quiet details of everyday experiences, influences that continue to shape how I think about craft, clarity, and design.

Why me?
I'm Curious about users & businesses
Hands-On Leadership
I design regularly and set the craft standard not just review work. I run critiques, own the interaction end-to-end, and ship production-ready outcomes alongside the team.
Systems Thinking at Scale
I build token-based design systems and conversion-aware interfaces that hold together at 10M+ users working across PM, Engineering, and Fraud & Security to align on every edge case.
Regulated Environment Experience
Enterprise payments, healthcare SaaS, embedded touch UI, I've shipped in industries where every error state, edge case, and accessibility requirement has real consequences.
