Design that ships, not just
impresses.
I'm Nicolás Vargas — a Product Designer focused on SaaS B2B. I design systems, collaborate closely with developers, and turn complex product problems into interfaces that actually get used.
Selected Work
Case studies that show the thinking.
Not just what was built — but why those decisions were made, what was traded off, and what shipped.
Kanut — Greenhouse Automation Platform
DONEDesigning a modular IoT dashboard system that translates real-time sensor data into operational decisions for greenhouse operators. Focused on system architecture, component logic, and clarity under complexity.
Enterprise Design System — LinkTIC
DONEBuilding and scaling a shared design system across multiple enterprise platforms with conflicting requirements, legacy codebases, and government-grade accessibility standards.
About
I design products, not screens.
I work at the intersection of product, design, and engineering — helping teams turn complex SaaS problems into scalable systems. My approach combines strategic thinking, design systems, and frontend awareness to reduce friction and ship faster.
With over 4 years designing B2B platforms — from IoT dashboards for the agricultural industry to government-grade enterprise tools — I've learned that great design isn't about beautiful interfaces. It's about reducing cognitive load, aligning with engineering constraints, and making sure the business goal is met.
Experience
Where I've built things.
Leading product SaaS for a greenhouse automation platform used in South America and Europe. Designed a modular IoT dashboard that reduced operator error by 40%, built the component library from scratch, and worked directly with engineering to define API calls for real-time sensor data.
Designed and delivered digital platforms for government and enterprise clients (IDEAM, Acueducto de Bogotá, Findeter, Fiscalía, Positiva), working across complex regulatory and operational contexts. Led the creation of a scalable design system to improve consistency, reduce design debt, and enable faster iteration across teams.
UX/UI designer leading the requirements gathering process for the design and development of an electronic invoicing prototype based on blockchain technology.
