About
Good design starts with understanding the problem.
I’m Oluwafunmibi Daramola, a product designer based in Lagos with 4+ years of experience. I currently work as a UI/UX Developer at Manthic Technologies. Before that I spent two years at Bakkaz Information and Technology, most recently as Lead Product Designer , leading design for Docuth, presenting to leadership and mentoring designers.
Background
From chemical engineering to product design.
I studied Chemical Engineering at the Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Effurun. Engineering taught me to break large problems into parts, to work within real constraints, and to explain the reasoning behind every decision. Those habits are still at the centre of how I design.
Structured problem-solving
Breaking a messy problem into parts that can be reasoned about.
Understanding complex systems
Seeing how rules, people and technology affect each other.
Analysing constraints
Designing within business, technical and time limits rather than around them.
Communicating decisions
Explaining why, so teams can build with confidence.
What guides my work
Understand before solving
I don’t pick a solution until I understand the problem and who has it.
Design around real needs
Decisions start from what people are trying to do, not from a screen.
Make complexity navigable
Complex rules can still feel simple when they’re revealed at the right moment.
Keep systems consistent
Shared components and tokens make products predictable to use and build.
Collaborate through delivery
Design isn’t done at handoff; I stay close while it’s built.
Accessibility is quality
Contrast, focus, labels and clear errors are part of the work, not extras.
