This is home sweet home for my creativity.

Illustrated portrait of Vitor Pinho

Design engineer that build stuff for humans.

I’m a Design Engineer with more than 15 years of experience building digital products for humans. I love crafting things that make sense, feel good, and truly help people.

Currently evolving/learning how AI workflows help us to build the next generation of technology.

I believe that every designer should be able to wear many hats and that’s why I’m always learning new technologies and ways to shorten the gap between designing and actually building products.

I’ve have weared many hats all these years:

  • Head of Design
  • Design Engineer
  • Lead Designer
  • Front-end Engineer
  • Design Ops Leader
  • Staff Product Designer
  • UX Designer
  • UX Mentor
  • Crypto wallet app adding 400,00 BRL from a connected wallet
  • Personal finance dashboard with net worth, liabilities and monthly spending
  • Writing app sidebar with search, a book's pages and shortcuts
  • Financial literacy card: learn about crypto and investments, next up liquidity pools
  • Relocation planner picturing life in Valencia, beside a Digital Nomad Visa progress card
  • Mobile banking home screen with wallets, quick actions and recent transactions
  • Deployment drawer: Setup and Go, with a live git clone log

I’ve helped many companies to build better products

  • Origin
  • Carta
  • Stone
  • Teya
  • HBO
  • Springboard
  • WhatsGood
  • Gateway
  • FARM
  • Arbitr
  • Reloca

Design is a science, based in continuous experimentation and validation rather than simply fulfilling user requests or mimicking competitors.

I advocate for a design process that sees each idea as part of an evolving system, where constantly improving your foundation to be easily reused and scalable leads to more time to experimentation, research and innovation.
