Hello there! I’m Nikita Sakharov, a product and service designer

About

I work with design in the broadest sense. I build products, develop strategies, optimize workflows, and apply creative methods to solve complex challenges.

For the past six years, I’ve been turning complexity into clarity and creating systems that actually work. At Fon.bet, a betting company, I was responsible for the development of the back office and internal products. Over four years, I fully redesigned the product, built a team from scratch, and set up processes that still help the business grow.

What inspires me most are complex, high-load systems where scalability, performance, and usability intersect. My favorite challenges involve simplifying the complicated and inefficient, diving into new industries and technologies, creating original solutions, and finding unconventional ways to move forward.

Outside of work

Outside of work, I look for challenges and new horizons. I snowboard, play tennis, and study programming languages. I’m also passionate about industrial design and collect vintage items.

For me, design is more than a profession. It’s a way to explore and change the world. Empathy, in-depth interviews often help me in everyday life.
