Overview​

​

I worked as a UX design co-op at Tripadvisor, Needham, MA with their Restaurants team. I worked on diverse projects in a short span of six months with a primary focus on consumer-facing web and mobile apps across iOS and Android platforms.

As part of my responsibilities, I – 

1. Assisted the lead designer in the B2C team in day to day design tickets, maintain and update the UI and design system library.

2. Independently led the design efforts on the two broad themes:

   • How might we improve the overall restaurant reservation experience for the end-users?

   • How might we reorganize the relevant information about restaurants without overwhelming the end-users? 

3. Defined the design opportunity space using competitor design benchmarking and secondary research.

4. Designed quick paper- and high-fidelity prototypes and conducted ideation workshops with program managers and engineering teams.

5. Collaborated with UX researchers to conduct usability tests on Usability hub and User testing.com. Findings eventually helped in improving and assessing design ideas.

6. Pitched new design concepts to the product leadership team.

7. Wrote detailed design specs for engineering teams.

8. Helped set up a bi-weekly creative share session to involve the engineering team in the design process.

9. Participated and was one of six finalists team in the annual intern hackathon.
