hi, I’m

Atshaya Venkataramani

A UI/UX designer with a knack for simplifying complexity.

My data-engineering background helps me understand the problem. My art helps me shape the answer.

I read the data before I design the screen.

Four years moving from data engineering into product design. Because I know how the numbers are modelled, I turn them into interfaces people actually understand.

From data to design

A data engineer from 2020, a product designer since 2022.

Currently

UI/UX Designer II at Verizon

Sole designer for enterprise internal tools, from research to handoff.

Selected work

From everyday tools to meaningful connections. A few problems I’ve enjoyed untangling.

Experience

Five years across data and design, at Verizon and on my own.

What I work on at Verizon

Lead designer for enterprise internal tools used across Verizon India. I own design end to end, working with product managers and development teams from research through handoff.

  • Leave management system. Redesigning leave requests into one connected flow. Read the case study
  • Asset management platform. Clearer workflows for incidents, asset movement, and loss calculations.
  • Innovation fund flow. Budget dashboards, portfolio costs, and approval states.
  • Event VZ dashboards. Information design for big screens and event displays.
  • WALL recognition. Badges and posters for internal recognition programs.

I draw, too.

When I’m not UX designing, you can usually find me doing some other artworks to keep me sane.

Let’s talk.

I’m always excited to collaborate on new projects, or just have a chat about design, technology, and creativity.
