Sanket Magarkar
UX Design Leader

I’m a UX designer based out of Seattle, WA. In the 18+ years of design journey, I have designed products and services across Mobility, Online Retail, Retail Business Operations, and Consumer products.

I enjoy pushing boundaries to create meaningful, engaging, and sustainable experiences in a multi-stakeholder environment.

About

Saket insists on high standards.
I'm a customer-obsessed design thinker and have been passionately imbibing it at strategic and day to day levels in large organizations like Samsung and Amazon. I have defined user experience strategies and standards for products and organizations.

I have rich experience in setting up UX design teams, processes and nurturing talent. I am comfortable managing design teams in fast-paced and result-oriented work environments. As a design leader and mentor, I seek to solve real-world customer problems at scale.
