Ajayi Ayobami
Product Designer & Design Engineer
Lagos, Nigeria
I'm a product designer and design engineer based in Lagos. For more than four years I've designed digital products for healthcare, fintech, hospitality, web3 and education.
I studied computer science, with an MSc in computer and information science, so I know how things get built. That lets me design what can really ship, and I often build it myself, working closely with engineers.
Right now I'm at De-Virtuosphere, designing and building Virtuo, an operating system for African schools. On the side I made Lectivo and Nmeal.
how I work
- 01
Request
It starts with what you need. I listen first, to understand your goals and your ideas.
- 02
Strategy
We decide who it is for, what to make first and what to leave out.
- 03
Design
I design the screens and flows, and prototype them so you can try them before anything is built.
- 04
Feedback
You react to the work and I revise it until it fits.
