Prashant Shinde
Staff Product Designer · Design Systems & AI

Staff-level product designer at the intersection of design systems, engineering, and business outcomes. 10+ years shipping regulated SaaS, clinical platforms, and AI-assisted build workflows across healthcare, workforce tech, fintech, and retail.

I build the design infrastructure engineering teams actually use — semantic token pipelines, AI-ready Figma architecture, and audit systems that hold quality at scale. The gap between design and engineering is where I operate. Bridging design systems and engineering through AI-assisted build workflows.
