About
I design products that earn their users' trust.
I'm Mihir Vaghani — a Product Designer based in Surat, India, working with teams across the US, EU, and Middle East. I'm currently the Lead UI/UX Designer at Tagline Infotech, where I lead design across client products in fintech, wellness, logistics, and AI.
Before this, I spent nearly two years as the founding designer at CapSync — a fintech platform serving individuals and financial advisors in the US. I built the product and the design system from zero, and stayed through the launch and scale phase.
Across five years I've shipped 12+ client products and 5+ personal tools. I care about product thinking over pixel-polish, design systems that survive engineering contact, and shipping over deliberating.

Process
How I approach design.
Repeatable but not rigid — each project shapes how the steps play out.
Discover
User interviews, stakeholder alignment, competitive landscape. Understand the problem fully before touching Figma.
Define
Frame the right problem, map user flows, set measurable success metrics. The question has to be right before the answer.
Design
Explore fast, prototype, build the system as I go. Every component earns its place by solving a real UI problem.
Test
Usability sessions, async feedback loops, data. Replace opinion with evidence, then iterate until it's right.
Ship
Annotated dev specs, documentation, post-launch monitoring. Design doesn't end at the handoff file.
Every case study on this site walks through this process in the context of a real product.
