Product & UX designer · India

I design calm tools for busy households.

Research-led product design for everyday coordination: the dinner call, the grocery run, the shared list. Shipped, and used daily.

A household app for four people that rings every phone at mealtime and keeps one honest grocery list, designed around what iPhones can’t do.

Portrait of Shrey Asthana

From physical ergonomics to digital ones.

I’m Shrey. I came to design from mechanical engineering, operations and data analytics, and I’m driven by curiosity about how people get through technology on an ordinary day.

Engineering taught me how tools fit human hands. Digital interfaces need the same care: less mental strain, a clear hierarchy, and tools that are comfortable and predictable to use.

Working on enterprise workflows, I spoke with teams about their day-to-day routines and watched people abandon rigid software for manual workarounds. Systems have to be built around human habits, not just around what the database finds convenient.

I pair qualitative listening with data. Numbers show where the friction is. Listening to people reveals why. Outside work I compose music, which taught me most of what I know about flow, pacing and feedback.

03 · What I bring

Constraints as material

Platform limits, budgets and older users shape the design rather than block it.

Decisions, written down

Every trade-off is logged with its reasoning, so the work survives handoff.

Shipped, then lived with

I design things my own household uses every day, and fix what they trip on.

Let’s make something people keep using.

I’m open to product and UX design roles and happy to walk through any of this work in detail.
