About Thirin

Senior Product Designer with over 7 years of experience, I help companies create high-performing, consistent, and scalable digital experiences. I design robust Design Systems, intuitive interfaces, and align every user journey with concrete business objectives.

Specializing in UX/UI, Design Ops, and Design Tokens, I work on both journey redesigns and the structuring of multi-brand design systems.

I have supported large groups (L'Oréal, Veepee, BPCE), as well as numerous startups at Station F. Former co-founder of Uncle J, a marketplace incubated at Station F, I have a genuine product and business sensibility, which I bring to the projects I support.


🚀 EXPERTISE:

- Design System: audit, components, tokens, multi-brand automation

- UX Design: user research, user flow, wireframes, user testing

- UI Design: desktop & mobile interfaces, prototyping

- Design Ops: governance, Sketch → Figma migration, documentation

- Tools: Figma, Sketch, Adobe Suite, Zeroheight, UserTesting, Notion, Jira, ServiceNow

Looking forward to connecting,
Thirin.
