For over two decades, I've partnered with startups and enterprise SaaS platforms to solve their most challenging design problems—the ones where user needs, business logic, and technical constraints collide.

I specialise in complex SaaS systems that demand more than surface-level design. From scoping business requirements to product discovery and end-to-end UI/UX, I bridge the gap between what stakeholders envision and what users actually need. My approach combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution, ensuring your product doesn't just look good—it works intuitively for the people who matter most.

In today's AI-accelerated landscape, I leverage AI design and development tools to move faster without sacrificing quality.

What I bring to your team:

  • Deep experience untangling complex workflows and data-heavy interfaces.
  • A proven track record of turning ambiguous requirements into clear product strategies.
  • Fluency in modern design systems, prototyping, and AI-assisted workflows.
  • The ability to speak the language of founders, engineers, and end users alike.

Whether you're a seed-stage startup validating your first product or an established platform scaling to enterprise, I help you build experiences that users trust and competitors study.

Jakob is an excellent communicator. He quickly got his head around this project and added amazing value. The project was to design a dashboard and various user interfaces for a sports coaching platform. We are very grateful for his input. He was a real pleasure to work with, respectful and prompt with all responses. Look forward to working with him again. Highly recommend!
