Work experience
UX/UI Designer & Frontend Developer
Since February 2026
Personal Portfolio Website Remote
  • Designed, prototyped, tested and developed a personal portfolio from scratch — the live site itself demonstrates the ability to match high-fidelity Figma design with pixel-perfect implementation.

  • Built a private analytics dashboard tracking visitor count, CV download rate, time-on-page, and project views — showcasing both frontend architecture and product thinking.

  • Iterated through multiple design and dev cycles to refine micro-interactions and performance details.

UX/UI Designer & Frontend Developer
From January 2026 to February 2026
ArduinoLab - PNL Mahdia Mahdia
  • Identified a real user problem: school teachers and kids needed a place to store and share Arduino projects without requiring technical knowledge — GitHub was too complex for this audience.

  • Designed and developed ArduinoLab — a fully deployed, Arabic-first online library for Arduino projects, built specifically for non-technical users with a zero-learning-curve interface.

  • Integrated AI-powered project documentation: users enter a short prompt (e.g. 'weather station') and the AI generates a full project guide in 3 languages automatically.

  • Supports file uploads including PDFs, STL files for 3D printing, and Arduino code libraries — making it a complete resource hub for students and educators

UX/UI Designer (Freelance)
From July 2025 to September 2025
Mama's Air Remote
  • Delivered a full mobile UX/UI design for a healthcare application, adapting the entire experience for Tunisian and North African users through precise localisation.

  • Built a complete RTL (right-to-left) Arabic layout from scratch alongside a French version — delivered both within one week, demonstrating speed and deep understanding of bilingual design systems.

Work experience
Lead UX/UI Designer (Freelance)
From December 2023 to December 2024
KIDZRISE Sousse, Tunisia
  • Sole designer responsible for the entire digital product: landing page, dashboard, quiz pages, mobile-first responsive layouts, business cards, standUp flyers, and social media assets.

  • Created a complete Figma design system — components, tokens, and developer specs — serving as the full product blueprint across two separate development teams.

    Proactively delivered the mobile version (outside original scope) when the new dev team identified it as priority — adapting to project pivots without compromising quality.

  • Presented brand identity at events including 'Meet-up Pro' and 'AI-Factory Garage' at Innovation City.

UX/UI Design Intern
From July 2023 to December 2023
Favizone Start-Up Tunis, Lac II
  • Embedded in a full cross-functional team (design, dev, QA, marketing) working on a Shopify SaaS plugin offering AI product recommendations and automated email marketing workflows.

  • Tackled a critical usability problem: users were abandoning the platform when configuring email templates due to overwhelming, poorly organized settings.

  • Proposed and implemented a progressive disclosure information architecture — grouping settings by function and hierarchy (e.g. text → font → size together; color → background together).

  • Result: task success rate for email template configuration increased by 60%, measured through user testing with client testers.

  • Worked with the Untitled UI component library to ensure design consistency with the existing system.
